Mr Jackson, also works on a health service helpline in his spare time, said: “There are so many deserving cases up and down the trust who go more than the extra mile in the line of duty. I am delighted and honoured.”

He attended the party, in the grounds of Buckingham Palace, with daughter Sarah.

“The event was such a memorable experience for both myself and Sarah,” he added.
