A little West End magic at Grosvenor House last night! ✨💚 I was honoured to be invited once again to the @LME_news Dinner—and what a treat to hear the cast of Wicked performing songs from the show there! 🎶 My work in recycling takes me to some wonderful places, and evenings like this bring together people from all parts of the metals industry, from recyclers like me to the manufacturers who use our materials. You might not hear much about the London Metal Exchange in everyday life, but its metal prices help guide what we pay and receive for the metals we recycle. It’s a connection between our recycling yards and markets around the world. An evening to remember 🤩 #keeprecycling

Battery fires are becoming one of the most serious operational risks facing the global recycling industry. 🔋🔥♻️ As our use of lithium-ion batteries continues to grow, so too does the number reaching the end of their useful life. The problem is not simply the batteries themselves. It is what happens when they enter recycling streams where they do not belong. Hidden inside discarded products, small electrical items and increasingly everyday devices, batteries can be extremely difficult to identify. When damaged, crushed or shredded during normal recycling operations, they can ignite — with potentially devastating consequences. Recycling facilities around the world are dealing with fires, damaged equipment, disruption to operations and increasing safety and insurance challenges. This cannot simply become a risk that the recycling industry is expected to absorb. We need action across the whole value chain — from product and battery design, to collection systems, consumer awareness, safe handling and end-of-life responsibility. And crucially, products containing batteries must be designed so those batteries can be easily identified and safely removed before recycling. Recyclers are an essential part of the circular economy. We need to make sure the products entering that economy can actually be recycled safely. This is a global problem that requires a global conversation. #KeepRecycling

I’m looking forward to being back at the British Motor Museum in just two weeks’ time! 🚗 On Thursday 10 September, I’ll have the pleasure of welcoming members to the @bmra_uk Conference 2026 — and if you’re planning to join us, today is your last chance to register. Registration closes at 12 noon TODAY. ⏰

Honored to speak at the @WeAreReMA Convention in Las Vegas at the Board of Directors meeting, representing the @BIRworld in my role as President. I took the opportunity to thank ReMA for their continued support and strong collaboration on global recycling priorities—from the global plastics treaty discussions to ongoing work within the Basel Convention. Excited for the days ahead—catching up with colleagues, building new connections, and continuing to learn. This industry never stands still🤩 #KeepRecycling #ReMA2026 #RecyclingLeadership #CircularEconomy #Sustainability

Another day, another metal recycling facility—but this one has a Rocky Mountain backdrop 🤩 It was great to visit this @BIRworld member today in Denver, Colorado, who are aptly named Rocky Mountain Recycling. Thanks for the hospitality, Brian Henesey. #KeepRecycling

Today is #GlobalRecyclingDay, celebrated every year on March 18th. It’s a day when citizens from all around the world can come together to promote the importance of recycling! Because Recycling helps reduce waste in landfills, saves our precious natural resources, and decreases pollution, making a huge positive impact on our environment. Plus, it supports sustainability by allowing us to reuse materials, which cuts down the need for mining and new production processes. By recycling, we also help lower CO2 emissions, which is crucial for tackling climate challenges and achieving the 2050 Net Zero Goals. Thank you to all recyclers for your efforts in making our planet a safer place for future generations! Let’s celebrate Global Recycling Day by recognizing the incredible work you all are doing every day 👏👏👏 #KeepRecycling

Special day today! Met Rusty - the @bmra_uk sponsored Guide Dog in training. Soon he will be a wonderful companion and life-changing partner for someone with visual impairment. Thank you BMRA members for your generous donations which has made this possible 💚

Happy International Women’s Day! Be Bold Be Brave Be Lucky Be Kind Be You #KeepRecycling #InternationalWomensDay #IWD26 #GiveToGain

Sad to learn of the passing of Philip Waldron, former top jockey. Master Willie was his star turn in the early 80s but he also rode my Dads first ever winner, Gordon Jones, in a seller at Windsor in the late 70s. He subsequently rode many winners in our green & yellow silks & we spent many happy hours at different racecourses in his company. Rest in peace Philip 🙏

BMRA Annual Dinner 2025 🥳 What a night …. Especially for the ladies of the industry! Winner of Life Time Achievement 2025 Sue Howell Winner of Rising Star 2025 Charlotte Robinson. Winner of Photo of the Year 2025 Stephanie Humphries. Thank you to the BMRA Secretariat, sponsors and all BMRA members in attendance who made this another night to remember. #KeepRecycling @bmra_uk

With COP30 Brazil opening in #Belém next week, it is disappointing to see that once again, the #recyclingindustry does not feature on the agenda in any substantial way. Recycling plays a critical and measurable role in reducing carbon emissions and conserving finite natural resources. It is therefore essential that our sector has a recognised place in global climate discussions. #KeepRecycling

Well done ⭐️Uzincso⭐️ & the team at @jbutlerracing 👏👏👏

Still buzzing after a virtual sit-down with Juan Verde earlier this week. We swapped ideas for his keynote address at the upcoming BIR - Bureau of International Recycling World Recycling Convention in Bangkok, October (26) 27-28. As a trusted advisor to U.S. Presidents Biden, Obama and Clinton, he’s spent his career at the nexus of business, trade and sustainability. Can’t wait to see him on the BIR stage! And he will be conducting a Q&A session after his address too! Don’t miss this opportunity to hear his thoughts & words of wisdom.
