Statistical information held in relation to the regional breakdown of recipients at all levels for the New Year Honours List 2024 can be found below. Percentages are rounded to 1 decimal point. Data for CBE and higher levels has been aggregated and is also included below. Data reflects the correspondence address provided by recipients.<\/p>
<\/strong><\/p> Data is collected using county and aggregated into regional figures. Information on the number of nominations by mayoral region, including for both South Yorkshire and Sheffield is not captured, as we are unable to break down the data in that way.<\/p> <\/p> This data relates only to the main Prime Minister\u2019s List and does not include data from the Defence List or the Overseas and International List, which are not administered by the Cabinet Office.<\/p> <\/p> Transparency data for the list by county, the level of award received and the service for which each recipient has been recognised for, as well as information on recipients recognised in previous honours lists is publicly available on gov.uk.<\/p> <\/p> Honours are awarded on merit basis. A key aim of the honours system is to ensure that it is more representative of the country as a whole and we will continue to encourage more nominations from every corner of the UK, including South Yorkshire, in future honours lists.<\/p> <\/strong><\/p> Regional breakdown - New Year 2024 list (1224) <\/strong><\/p> <\/strong><\/p> Region <\/strong><\/p><\/td> BEM<\/strong><\/p><\/td> BEM%<\/strong><\/p><\/td> MBE<\/strong><\/p><\/td> MBE%<\/strong><\/p><\/td> OBE<\/strong><\/p><\/td> OBE%<\/strong><\/p><\/td> CBE & Higher<\/strong><\/p><\/td> CBE & higher%<\/strong><\/p><\/td> Total<\/strong><\/p><\/td> Population %<\/strong><\/p><\/td><\/tr> East<\/p><\/td> 36<\/p><\/td> 9.5%<\/p><\/td> 39<\/p><\/td> 8.4%<\/p><\/td> 19<\/p><\/td> 8%<\/p><\/td> 11<\/p><\/td> 7.1%<\/p><\/td> 105<\/p><\/td> 9.3%<\/p><\/td><\/tr> Yorkshire & Humberside<\/p><\/td> 30<\/p><\/td> 7.9%<\/p><\/td> 27<\/p><\/td> 5.8%<\/p><\/td> 12<\/p><\/td> 5%<\/p><\/td> 7<\/p><\/td> 4.5%<\/p><\/td> 76<\/p><\/td> 8.2%<\/p><\/td><\/tr> London<\/p><\/td> 43<\/p><\/td> 11.4%<\/p><\/td> 95<\/p><\/td> 21.5%<\/p><\/td> 62<\/p><\/td> 26.2%<\/p><\/td> 62<\/p><\/td> 40.2%<\/p><\/td> 262<\/p><\/td> 13.4%<\/p><\/td><\/tr> North East<\/p><\/td> 9<\/p><\/td> 1.8%<\/p><\/td> 11<\/p><\/td> 2.3%<\/p><\/td> 5<\/p><\/td> 2.1%<\/p><\/td> 1<\/p><\/td> 0.6%<\/p><\/td> 26<\/p><\/td> 4.0%<\/p><\/td><\/tr> North West<\/p><\/td> 31<\/p><\/td> 8.2%<\/p><\/td> 52<\/p><\/td> 11.3%<\/p><\/td> 14<\/p><\/td> 5.9%<\/p><\/td> 7<\/p><\/td> 4.5%<\/p><\/td> 104<\/p><\/td> 11.0%<\/p><\/td><\/tr> Northern Ireland<\/p><\/td> 43<\/p><\/td> 11.4%<\/p><\/td> 28<\/p><\/td> 6.1%<\/p><\/td> 8<\/p><\/td> 3.3%<\/p><\/td> 2<\/p><\/td> 1.2%<\/p><\/td> 81<\/p><\/td> 2.8%<\/p><\/td><\/tr> Scotland<\/p><\/td> 29<\/p><\/td> 7.6%<\/p><\/td> 45<\/p><\/td> 9.8%<\/p><\/td> 23<\/p><\/td> 9.7%<\/p><\/td> 13<\/p><\/td> 8.4%<\/p><\/td> 110<\/p><\/td> 8.2%<\/p><\/td><\/tr> South East<\/p><\/td> 54<\/p><\/td> 14.3%<\/p><\/td> 59<\/p><\/td> 12.8%<\/p><\/td> 36<\/p><\/td> 15.2%<\/p><\/td> 23<\/p><\/td> 14.9%<\/p><\/td> 172<\/p><\/td> 13.7%<\/p><\/td><\/tr> South West<\/p><\/td> 35<\/p><\/td> 9.2%<\/p><\/td> 28<\/p><\/td> 6.1%<\/p><\/td> 16<\/p><\/td> 6.7%<\/p><\/td> 11<\/p><\/td> 7.1%<\/p><\/td> 90<\/p><\/td> 8.4%<\/p><\/td><\/tr> Wales<\/p><\/td> 28<\/p><\/td> 7.4%<\/p><\/td> 30<\/p><\/td> 6.5%<\/p><\/td> 11<\/p><\/td> 4.6%<\/p><\/td> 4<\/p><\/td> 2.5%<\/p><\/td> 73<\/p><\/td> 4.7%<\/p><\/td><\/tr> West Midlands<\/p><\/td> 23<\/p><\/td> 0.2%<\/p><\/td> 26<\/p><\/td> 5.6%<\/p><\/td> 13<\/p><\/td> 5.5%<\/p><\/td> 2<\/p><\/td> 1.2%<\/p><\/td> 64<\/p><\/td> 8.9%<\/p><\/td><\/tr> East Midlands<\/p><\/td> 15<\/p><\/td> 3.9%<\/p><\/td> 19<\/p><\/td> 4.1%<\/p><\/td> 17<\/p><\/td> 7.2%<\/p><\/td> 7<\/p><\/td> 4.5%<\/p><\/td> 58<\/p><\/td> 7.2%<\/p><\/td><\/tr> Living abroad<\/p><\/td> 1<\/p><\/td> 0.2%<\/p><\/td> -<\/p><\/td> -<\/p><\/td> -<\/p><\/td> -<\/p><\/td> 2<\/p><\/td> 1.2%<\/p><\/td> 3<\/p><\/td> -<\/p><\/td><\/tr> Total<\/p><\/td> 377<\/p><\/td> <\/p><\/td> 459<\/p><\/td> <\/p><\/td> 236<\/p><\/td> <\/p><\/td> 152<\/p><\/td> <\/p><\/td> 1224<\/p><\/td> <\/p><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table> <\/p>"}

This has allowed Trusts to increase bed numbers and facilities to support better flow and, as a result, the National Health Service has reported over 1,000 more hospital beds are open this winter than at the same time last year.<\/p> In addition, a further £240 million has been provided again this year for adult social care to help reduce delays in patients being discharged from hospital by providing social care support.<\/p> This is all additional to winter funding last year that provided £145 million of capital funding to hospitals. £36.3 million was also provided to ambulance services for 256 new state-of-the-art vehicles and \u2018make-ready hubs\u2019 which shorten the turnaround times for vehicles and increase their availability. The winter period is usually considered to be from December to March, therefore an assessment of demand for ambulance services can be made after winter has finished.<\/p> Despite a huge increase in demand, the Care Quality Commission\u2019s State of Health and Adult Social Care Report 2018/19 shows that the vast majority of patients continue to receive good, safe care. Overall quality of care in NHS acute hospitals has improved, with 72% of core services rated as good or outstanding, up from 66% in the previous year.<\/p> The quality of care in NHS ambulance trusts has also improved over the last year, with seven out of 10 trusts rated as good and none rated as inadequate. And, as at January 2020, 84% of adult social care settings were rated as good or outstanding. Four out of five adult social care services are rated as good, similar to 2018, and 996 services are providing care that is rated as outstanding.<\/p> <\/p>"}
