While you might be listing up your ‘ins and outs’ for 2025 or perhaps making some resolutions, there’s a rather fancier list that dropped last night (30 December).

As is tradition, as the year comes to an end, the huge list of people named in the King’s New Year Honours has been revealed.

More than 1,200 people from across the UK received honours from fields including sport, business, entertainment and politics.

And it’s not just celebrities either but those unsung heroes who make huge contributions to their local communities, charities and the likes of education and healthcare.

With the likes of Gareth Southgate and Stephen Fry on the list, the Honours are awarded by King Charles following recommendations by the prime minister or senior government ministers.

Us mere members of the public can also recommend people for an award.

CBE is the highest-ranking Order of the British Empire award, followed by OBE and then MBE.

The New Year Honours list has seen Southgate knighted for services to association football after leading the Three Lions to back-to-back Euros finals. His upgrade to Sir comes after his resignation from the manager position.

Fry has also been knighted in recognition for his services to mental health awareness, the environment and to charity.

The Tracey Beaker series creator Jacqueline Wilson has been made a Dame Grand Cross (GBE) for services to literature, The Great Gatsby actor Carey Mulligan is awarded a CBE, as is TV presenter Alan Titchmarsh.

Actor Eddie Marsan is awarded an OBE while musician Myleene Klass is to become MBE for her work on women’s health and miscarriage awareness.

Happy Valley star Sarah Lancashire is also to be appointed a CBE for services to drama.

Other actors honoured include Anne Reid, Anne-Marie Duff, Kevin Whately and Dr Who star Tom Baker as well as BBC Radio 6 host Steve Lamacq honoured.

After the Olympics over the summer, there’s also plenty of Team GB athletes receiving honours.

Gold medallist and BBC Sports Personality of the Year Keely Hodgkinson becomes MBE at just 22 years old.

Two-time Olympic champion Tom Pidcock, 25, is made an OBE, having won gold in mountain biking, while Paralympian Hannah Cockroft becomes a CBE after coming first in the T34 100m and 800m in Paris.

Other gold medallists being honoured include swimmer Duncan Scott (OBE), sailor Ellie Aldridge (MBE) and rowers Lola Anderson, Hannah Scott, Lauren Henry and Georgie Brayshaw (all MBE).

Legend of the grid walk and former F1 driver Martin Brundle is made an OBE and former Scotland and Liverpool footballer Alan Hansen is also made an MBE.

Former Everton, Manchester United and West Ham boss David Moyes is also made an OBE along with Helen Glover, one of the country's greatest-ever rowers.

Plus, former sub-postmasters and Horizon IT scandal victims Lee Castleton, Jo Hamilton, Christopher Head and Seema Misra are made OBEs for services to justice.
