King's Birthday Honours List: Every Portsmouth and Hampshire individual recognised by King Charles III

King Charles III has recognised the efforts of several people from Portsmouth and Hampshire in his birthday honours list.

Special honours are given to people who make outstanding contributions to their community and the country. A total of 1,077 people have been acknowledged across the UK this year.

People who stood out locally range from those who made a remarkable difference in sport, libraries, volunteering, business, engineering, science and other fields. Award organisers said 64 per cent of recipients were people who showed “outstanding work” in their communities either in a voluntary or paid capacity, adding that 66 per cent of recipients lived outside London and the South East.
