Beth Mead, Chris Kamara and Bryn Hughes: The Yorkshire celebrities and residents who have been named in the New Year's Honours List

But there’s also a number of unsung heroes who have been recognised for their tireless work, whether that be campaigning for change, working in education or caring for our elderly.

Among the big names are Beth Mead, the North Yorkshire footballer who helped England’s Lionnesses to Euro 2021 glory earlier this year, as well as former Leeds United player Chris Kamara for his services to football, anti-racism and charity.

Professor Cathryn Elizabeth Nutbrown has been given a Damehood for services to early childhood education, while Charles and Elizabeth Ritchie have been awarded MBEs for their work around gambling. They set up the charity Gambling with Lives following the death of their 24-year-old son Jack in 2017.

Here’s the full list of people from Yorkshire who have been included in the Honours List, and what for.
