Recycling Lives announces new non-executive advisory board

By Dean

17 May 2016

Preston-based Recycling Lives has welcomed Anne Catterson, Suzana Edwards DL, and Frank McKenna to its non-executive advisory board.

Frank McKenna, the founder and chief executive of Downtown in Business, brings a wealth of experience and know-how to the advisory board, having been deputy leader of Lancashire County Council, and one of the most influential business voices in the region.

Anne Catterson joins us as the senior programme director for Common Purpose in Cumbria and Lancashire. Anne has a strong background in education and business. Anne was an owner and director of a highly successful franchise of The Body Shop, with stores across Scotland, Cumbria, and Lancashire.

Suzana Edwards DL joins as an honorary fellow of both Blackburn College and The University of Central Lancashire. Suzana became deputy lieutenant of Lancashire in October 2014, and is also chair and founder of Butterfly Ball Events. Suzana’s entrepreneurship, commercial vision and her determination to pursue her ambitions in business have been recognised with a total of 19 national awards including Entrepreneur of the Year.

"This will help us to deliver on our current ambitious commercial growth and expansion plans; it really is rewarding to see the level of growth that we are achieving. Now we need to make sure that our organisation remains sustainable, so that we can continue to deliver Recycling Lives’ exceptional social impact for the next decade.

"2016 sees exciting times ahead and each of the new members of the Advisory Board will bring their own specialist skill set to facilitate our current cycle of growth.

"The impressive commercial acumen of the new appointees when combined, will support Recycling Lives’ existing strategy of ensuring expansion and increased profitability for our commercial business, whilst ensuring the sustainability and scalability of our Social Welfare Charity."
