J.K. Rowling and Naomi Campbell have been invited to dine with world leaders at the G20 summit in London.

The supermodel and Harry Potter author will join women from the world of art, business, fashion and sport at a special banquet at 10 Downing Street cooked by celebrity chef Jamie Oliver.

Other guests at the event include Gavin & Stacey actress Ruth Jones and Olympic gold medalist Dame Kelly Holmes.

Speaking about the menu on offer, Oliver revealed that he would source all the ingredients locally.

"I'm hoping that the menu I'm working on will show that British food and produce is some of the best in the world," he told The Times.

"It's always a huge honour to cook at No 10, but to be invited to cook for such an important group of people who are trying to solve some of the world's major problems, well that really is a privilege."

The menu is expected to include Welsh lamb, Jersey Royal new potatoes and asparagus from Cornwall or the Isles of Scilly.
