THE Queen will announce her New Year's Honours list on Saturday.

People who have played an important role in their community will be named alongside celebrities.

Last year milkman Nigel Crocker, 62, was given an MBE for services to the community of Broad Town, where he has lived all his life.

Residents of the village, near Wootton Bassett, said it was well deserved.

As well as providing for all of Broad Town's dairy needs, self-employed Nigel helps out in the village in every way he can.

Cutting lawns, keeping an eye on people's properties when they go away, doing odd jobs and fixing things are all part of his daily routine.

Nigel is a parish councillor and as the chairman of the village hall committee has helped organise the Broad Town village show for several years.

The show raises about £2,000 each year for the local church, school, playgroup and Women's Institute.

At the time of the award one resident said he did "everything with a smile".

Another said: "Like all villages there are a few people doing good and Nigel is one of them."
