Big salutations to President Terry Jackson to mark his 76th birthday
As Americans get used to the fact Mr Trump will be their new leader in January after his surprise election success, Lancashire social impact business Recycling Lives took a more joyful approach to celebrate its very own President’s Day in honour of their chief – Terry Jackson.
The firm, which has more than 40 years experience in the recycling and waste management industry, invited more than 100 employees and their children to enjoy a fun-packed high flying evening at Energi trampoline park in Preston to mark Terry’s 76th birthday.

“Giving back to our communities and supporting marginalised families, is second nature to our employees, so it was a wonderful feeling to be able to bring them together with their own families.”
Recycling Lives will be adding Presidents Day to their annual staff calendar along with the already popular Christmas Grotto, which already takes place every year at the Recycling Lives Centre on Essex Street in Preston.
The firm’s commercial services help to support its social welfare charity, which helps vulnerable people to work their way back to independent living.
Recycling Lives specialise in the recycling of scrap cars, scrap metal, WEEE, plastic, household and commercial waste, bulky waste and plastic materials.
