Peter Roberts, from Hadfield, a colour sergeant with the Royal Marines Reserves, was part of a group of reservists and employers from the North West honoured at a Downing Street reception on Friday.

And on Tuesday he attended a garden party at Holyrood Palace in Edinburgh, in recognition of his military service.
