Congratulations to all in Nottinghamshire who have been recognised in the King’s Birthday 2026 Honours list. 

These honours acknowledge exceptional individuals whose dedication, compassion and leadership have made a lasting difference to communities across our county and beyond.

From supporting children and young people, advancing education and healthcare, championing the environment, strengthening our communities and serving industry, each recipient represents the very best of Nottinghamshire.

On behalf of His Majesty The King’s Nottinghamshire Lieutenancy, we extend our warmest congratulations to all those honoured. Thank you for your outstanding service and commitment to others.

Lord-Lieutenant Professor Veronica Pickering OBE MBS HAC, who herself received an OBE for Voluntary Service, said:

“The King’s Birthday Honours remind us that the strength of Nottinghamshire lies in the extraordinary commitment of ordinary people. Those recognised this year have each, in their own way, dedicated themselves to improving the lives of others. Their service, compassion and leadership inspire us all, and it gives me enormous pleasure, on behalf of His Majesty The King, to offer them my heartfelt congratulations and thanks.”
