}}Julie Bentley is a British voluntary sector leader and has been the Chief Executive of Action for Children since August 2018.[1] She had served in similar roles at Girlguiding, 2012–2018[2] the Family Planning Association and the Suzy Lamplugh Trust.[1]

While Chief Executive of Girlguiding she oversaw a complete governance review,[3] developed the organisation's first five year strategy,[4] and changed their Promise so that members commit to ‘develop my beliefs’ rather than ‘love my God’.[5] The organisation also launched a series of badges to support girls in the modern world including one promoting body confidence[6] and another teaching girls about mental wellbeing.[7] The charity also launched the Girls Matter campaign in order to get people in power to listen to girls’ views.[8]

"Everything we do helps make girls and young women more aware, more confident and gives them a voice" she said of the charity, in an interview with the Financial Times.[9]

During her term, the charity has enjoyed a revival with increased public understanding of their work to support girls and young women into adulthood.[9]
