FAMILY-owned furniture manufacturer, The Senator Group, invited its 1,900 employees, clients and their families to a tremendous family fun day earlier this month.

The event was held at Salesbury Hall, Ribchester, also home to The Royal Lancashire Show 2015 and brought together employees, retired employees, customers and their families from firm's head office in Accrington, as well as their sites across the world.

Visitors of all ages enjoyed a variety of entertainment including fairground rides and attractions, an animal farm, dog trials and birds of prey shows.

Professional motorcycle rider Dan Clarke, part of the Xtreme stunt team, wowed crowds with an impressive display and there were a variety of competitions including a ‘Human Table Football’ tournament where department teams went head to head for the coveted winner title.

The sun continued to shine as guests returned in the evening for a Prosecco reception, barbecue, dancing and live outdoor performance from The Kommitments.

Chairman and founder Colin Mustoe said: “We see our people and our clients as part of The Senator Group family and it was lovely to see everyone together enjoying a tremendous event. As a business we’ve enjoyed great success and this occasion celebrates all the work everyone has put in to get us where we are today.”
