This extensive list features over 1,200 individuals from politics, sports, arts, and community service. They will receive honours ranging from MBEs to knighthoods and damehoods.

The honours recognized Khan, a prominent politician of Asian origin in Britain and a member of the Labour Party, for his political and public service. Despite facing challenges like crime and a housing crisis, he was elected mayor for the third time this year.

UK television icon and writer Stephen Fry, aged 67, received a knighthood for his contributions to mental health awareness, environmental efforts, and charity work. Fry, open about his bipolar disorder, described his knighthood as both startling and enchanting.

Gareth Southgate, who led England to two consecutive European Championship finals before stepping down in July, also received a knighthood.

The New Year honours, a tradition since at least 1890, celebrate not just celebrities but those whose quiet dedication significantly impacts national life. The king or other senior royals present these awards throughout the year.

Prime Minister Keir Starmer emphasized the extraordinary contributions of ordinary individuals, expressing gratitude to the unsung heroes recognized this year.

In business, former intelligence DG, ex-Rolls-Royce boss Warren East, and former HSBC chief executive Noel Quinn will receive knighthoods.

Keely Hodgkinson earned an MBE in sports, and Olympic rower Helen Glover received an OBE.

Children’s author Jacqueline Wilson was appointed a Dame Grand Cross, and Nobel laureate Kazuo Ishiguro became a Companion of Honour.

A TV drama spotlighting their plight led to legislation that exonerates and compensates the affected individuals.
