Vicky McClure is among the Nottinghamshire figures on the King's Birthday Honours list. The actress and campaigner is one of 12 people living or working in our county to be recognised by King Charles III for their accomplishments and service to different aspects of life.
The Wollaton-born Line of Duty star has been recognised for her services to drama and charity, due to her impressive dementia campaigning. She has previously highlighted how music therapy can help those with the disease through her own Dementia Choir.
Explaining she had received the honour to support the "great city of Nottingham", Vicky acknowledged the MBE had followed some of the darkest days in her hometown's history. "It’s been a devastating time in Nottingham and attending the vigil on Thursday to remember Barnaby, Grace and Ian, their families and friends reminded us all to look after one another," Vicky said.
