We, the undersigned, commit to honour the Armed Forces Covenant and support the Armed Forces Community. We recognise the value Serving Personnel, both Regular and Reservists, Veterans and military families contribute to our business and our country.

The Armed Forces Covenant

An enduring covenant between the people of the United Kingdom, Her Majesty’s Government and all those who serve or have served in the Armed Forces of the Crown and their families

The first duty of Government is the defence of the realm. Our Armed Forces fulfil that responsibility on behalf of the Government, sacrificing some civilian freedoms, facing danger and, sometimes, suffering serious injury or death as a result of their duty. Families also play a vital role in supporting the operational effectiveness of our Armed Forces. In return, the whole nation has a moral obligation to the members of the Naval Service, the Army and the Royal Air Force, together with their families. They deserve our respect and support, and fair treatment.

Those who serve in the Armed Forces, whether Regular or Reserve, those who have served in the past, and their families, should face no disadvantage compared to other citizens in the provision of public and commercial services. Special consideration is appropriate in some cases, especially for those who have given most such as the injured and the bereaved.

This obligation involves the whole of society: it includes voluntary and charitable bodies, private organisations, and the actions of individuals in supporting the Armed Forces. Recognising those who have performed military duty unites the country and demonstrates the value of their contribution. This has no greater expression than in upholding this Covenant.

Section 1: Principles of the Armed Forces Corporate Covenant

1.1 We Family Finance Ltd will endeavour in our business dealings to uphold the key principles of the Armed Forces Covenant, which are:
- no member of the Armed Forces Community should face disadvantage in the provision of public and commercial services compared to any other citizen;
- and in some circumstances that special treatment may be appropriate especially for the injured or bereaved.
Section 2: Demonstrating our commitment

2.1 Family Finance Ltd recognises the value serving personnel, reservists, veterans and military families bring to our business. We will seek to uphold the principles of the Armed Forces Covenant, by pledging to the following:
- Armed Forces Friendly
We also pledge the following:

Commercial: we pledge to ensure that ex-service persons have fair access to our services and will not be put at a disadvantage by their service. Employment support to members of the Armed Forces Community: we pledge to guarantee an interview to any applicants who have served in the armed forces.

2.2 We will publicise these commitments through our literature and/or on our website, setting out how we will seek to honour them and inviting feedback from the Service community and our customers on how we are doing.

Semi-synthetic cannabinoids related to tetrahydro-cannabinol and cannabidiol
Source: gov.uk (2025-08-20)

ACMD review into the use and harms of SSCs and THCA to identify compounds causing harm which are not captured by the current generic definition for cannabinoids.

The ACMD has conducted a review into the use and harms of semi-synthetic cannabinoids (SSCs) and tetrahydro-cannabinol acid (THCA), with the aims of identifying specific compounds causing health and social harms that are not captured by the current generic definition for cannabinoids.

The ACMD recommends that these compounds should be controlled under the Misuse of Drugs Act 1971 (MDA) under Class B and Schedule I of the Misuse of Drugs Regulations 2001 (MDR).

The ACMD also recommends that the UK generic text for cannabinoids in the MDA should be updated so that psychoactive semi-synthetic cannabinoids will be captured and controlled under legislation.

The government responded to the report on 20 August 2025.

These publications are not fully accessible. We will provide accessible versions as soon as possible.

Sponsors of children travelling to, or staying in the UK without their parent or legal guardian: Homes for Ukraine
Source: gov.uk (2025-01-31)

What to do if you are asked to look after your guest's child or children unexpectedly. This could include if your guest needs to leave the country, or travel separately.

Children under 18 who are coming to the UK to live without their parents or legal guardians could be particularly vulnerable. There is a separate process for applications from sponsors to make sure that children and young people are safe. Applicants must meet different eligibility criteria, and their sponsors must also have enhanced safeguarding checks.

You can apply to sponsor a child without their parent or legal guardian. You will need to use the online application form for sponsors of children not travelling with their parent or guardian (https://apply-to-offer-homes-for-ukraine.service.gov.uk/sponsor-a-child).

Where parents/legal guardians have applied through the Homes for Ukraine scheme they should travel and stay with their children. Once in the UK, guests should not leave their child in the care of a sponsor (or an accompanying adult relative) for a period of 28 days or more. Guests must also not leave their child in the care of a sponsor (or an accompanying relative) for shorter periods on a regular basis.

If exceptional circumstances mean that the parent(s)/legal guardians must leave their child in the care of a sponsor for a short period, guidance is clear that they should agree this with you and inform the council in advance so they can carry out additional sponsor suitability checks where appropriate. Further information can be found in the guidance about unaccompanied children identified already living in the UK (https://www.gov.uk/guidance/homes-for-ukraine-guidance-for-councils-children-and-minors-applying-without-parents-or-legal-guardians#ending-of-sponsorship-arrangement).

If the parent or legal guardian has left a child in your care, you must tell your local council immediately.

While away from the UK, the parents or legal guardians should stay in frequent contact with you and their child and update you if there are any changes to their plans (for example if the duration of their time away changes).

Sponsors should be aware that if a sponsorship arrangement between a sponsor and a child who is under 18 and not with their parent or legal guardian breaks down or is ended at the direction of the council for child welfare or safeguarding reasons, the council may need to accommodate the child.

The council will try to contact the parent to find out how they want their child to be cared for if this happens.

We, the undersigned, commit to honour the Armed Forces Covenant and support the Armed Forces Community. We recognise the value Serving Personnel, both Regular and Reservists, Veterans and military families contribute to our business and our country.

The Armed Forces Covenant

An enduring covenant between the people of the United Kingdom, Her Majesty’s Government and all those who serve or have served in the Armed Forces of the Crown and their families

The first duty of Government is the defence of the realm. Our Armed Forces fulfil that responsibility on behalf of the Government, sacrificing some civilian freedoms, facing danger and, sometimes, suffering serious injury or death as a result of their duty. Families also play a vital role in supporting the operational effectiveness of our Armed Forces. In return, the whole nation has a moral obligation to the members of the Naval Service, the Army and the Royal Air Force, together with their families. They deserve our respect and support, and fair treatment.

Those who serve in the Armed Forces, whether Regular or Reserve, those who have served in the past, and their families, should face no disadvantage compared to other citizens in the provision of public and commercial services. Special consideration is appropriate in some cases, especially for those who have given most such as the injured and the bereaved.

This obligation involves the whole of society: it includes voluntary and charitable bodies, private organisations, and the actions of individuals in supporting the Armed Forces. Recognising those who have performed military duty unites the country and demonstrates the value of their contribution. This has no greater expression than in upholding this Covenant.

Section 1: Principles of the Armed Forces Corporate Covenant

1.1 We North Yorkshire Youth will endeavour in our business dealings to uphold the key principles of the Armed Forces Covenant, which are:
- no member of the Armed Forces Community should face disadvantage in the provision of public and commercial services compared to any other citizen;
- and in some circumstances that special treatment may be appropriate especially for the injured or bereaved.
Section 2: Demonstrating our commitment

2.1 North Yorkshire Youth recognises the value serving personnel, reservists, veterans and military families bring to our business. We will seek to uphold the principles of the Armed Forces Covenant, by pledging to the following:
- Armed Forces Friendly
- UK Service Veterans And Leavers
- UK Service Spouses And Partners
- Flexible Leave For Spouses
- UK Reservists
- UK Cadets
- Armed Forces Day
- Reserve Forces Day
- Armed Forces Charities
2.2 We will publicise these commitments through our literature and/or on our website, setting out how we will seek to honour them and inviting feedback from the Service community and our customers on how we are doing.
International Bilateral Fund Monitoring & Evaluation
Source: gov.uk (2025-08-26)

A concise overview of the International Bilateral Fund's economic impact as well as its contributions for establishing partnerships across space organisations.

The International Bilateral Fund (IBF) is the UK Space Agency’s first programme targeted at establishing and strengthening bilateral and multilateral partnerships. At present, the majority of the UK Space Agency’s expenditure is channelled through the European Space Agency (ESA). Despite the significant benefits this brings to the UK, this has created a funding gap regarding collaborations with other (non-ESA) regions – a gap that the IBF aims to address. The IBF has focussed on establishing and reinforcing collaborations with priority partner countries, such as the USA, Canada, Australia, and Japan, alongside partners of opportunity, including Singapore, the UAE, India and Bahrain.

know.space has been commissioned by the UK Space Agency to conduct Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) and benefits management for the IBF. These activities are providing greater understanding of the programme, its effectiveness, and the impacts it is producing in its primary objectives, which are to:
- build stronger relationships with priority countries and ensure the UK becomes a trusted space partner of choice
- increase UK space sector inward investment and exports
- develop UK capabilities in collaboration with our international partners
Crown court comes to college: recycling project inspires legal careers
Source: gov.uk (2025-01-23)

An innovative recycling project has helped to create a new mock courtroom allowing law students to get a taste of the Crown court.

A new mock courtroom is giving law students a taste of crown court life thanks to an innovative recycling project.

Staff from Equans, who provide facilities management services to courts across England and Wales, have refurbished and installed genuine courtroom furniture and fittings at Richard Huish College in Taunton.

The furniture, which had been in storage, was in a poor state of repair and would otherwise have gone to landfill.

Donated by HM Courts and Tribunals Service, the items include a judicial dais, jury seating, defendant dock and desks for prosecution and defence teams.

The volunteer team from Equans dedicated around 280 hours to restore the furniture and transform the classroom space, with most of the work completed during a five-day period. Their efforts included painting the room and fitting wood panelling to the walls.

Richard Huish College aims to offer students greater opportunities to pursue careers in law and it’s hoped that the mock courtroom will give them the experience of how a real courtroom operates.

Staff from HMCTS, Equans and other contractors who worked on the project joined teachers and pupils at the college to officially unveil the new facility.

Tom Spalding, Deputy Director of Facilities Management and Technical Services at HMCTS, who attended the opening ceremony said:

This initiative demonstrated HMCTS’ commitment to sustainability while providing law students with an authentic environment for their practical legal education.

Hearing the students’ first-hand accounts of the positive benefits this outstanding new facility is delivering was enlightening and Equans should be commended for their remarkable efforts and their commitment to corporate and social responsibility.

Equans Sector Director Jacob Snellings said:

At Equans we have 2 volunteering days a year per employee as part of our commitment to Social Value and we were really pleased to be able to harness this whilst aligning with the objectives of one of our accounts; HM Courts and Tribunals Service.

We hope that providing this mock court room will attract young people in the early development of their career journeys into all aspects of what HMCTS do.
