Mhari Ashworth

Co-opted Member

Started July, 2024

Mhari’s first years in the Falklands were spent at Goose Green before the family moved to Stanley. She qualified as a Nursery Nurse in 1992 and after several years working in the childcare sector, she moved first to the hospitality and then to the retail sector where she developed a strong background in management and accounting before taking up the post of Accountant at Fortuna Ltd in February 2015.

In this this role she is involved in several local and overseas enterprises (fisheries, factory processing, retail, real estate, ferry services). After several years of distance learning she qualified as a Chartered Accountant in 2022. Residing at Fitzroy Ridge she shares her time between Camp and Stanley and makes the daily commute to Stanley.  FIDC provided support to her family when they moved the Stanley Dairy from Ross Road East, Stanley to Beckside Farm in 1986, a business that they ran successfully for many years. She recognises what a difference support from FIDC can make to businesses, and particularly new ones, and is pleased to have the opportunity to support the work of FIDC and the Falklands’ business community.
