In this episode of Policy360:Unplugged, Ellen speaks with Charmain Jones, a Protestant woman, peacebuilder, and champion for rural and loyalist communities.

Charmain shares her powerful story of growing up in a loyalist area, navigating complex layers of identity, and advocating for women’s voices in places they’re too often overlooked. From the grassroots to government, she speaks candidly about what it means to belong, to challenge assumptions, and to hold space for difficult but necessary conversations.

Part of our women’s series, this episode is supported by Awards for All and spotlights the strength, nuance, and leadership of women across Northern Ireland.
