King Charles’s Birthday Honours list recognises a range of public figures and organisations across sport, arts and charity. Rugby league campaigner and fundraiser Kevin Sinfield is knighted, with coverage citing his work to tackle motor neurone disease. Actress Dame Helen Mirren is made a Companion of Honour for services to drama. The England Women’s football team, known as the Lionesses, also features prominently: six members of their Euro 2025-winning squad receive MBEs. Reports describe Sinfield commenting that he is “deeply grateful” for the honour. Other outlets’ summaries indicate additional honourees beyond sport and acting, including people in fields such as music, philanthropy and photography, though the specific names beyond Mirren, Sinfield and the Lionesses are not consistently detailed in the provided text. Overall, multiple sources agree on the leading figures highlighted in the list: Sinfield’s knighthood, Mirren’s Companion of Honour and the MBEs awarded to six Lionesses for services related to their achievements.
