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 Gloucester City AFC 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 Gloucester City AFC 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
- Discounts
We also pledge the following:

Provide training and development opportunities within our football club. A partnership between defence and our club.

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.

Youth worker interactions with other sectors: Better understanding multi-agency working to support young people
Source: gov.uk (2025-10-29)

A research study exploring how, in practice, youth workers interact with other sector personnel and agencies.

In September 2024, the Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) commissioned SQW (an independent research organisation) in partnership with UK Youth (the UK’s leading youth work charity) to undertake a research study exploring how, in practice, youth workers interact with other sector personnel/agencies.

It was intended that the research would help DCMS to design future policy and programmes and may also inform future thinking about the National Youth Strategy and Young Futures Hubs. As such, in addition to the main body of this report, a ‘Suggestions for good practice’ section has been included in Section 9, which can be accessed as either a part of this broader research, or independently by practitioners and policy makers to guide the work that they do.

Novel Technology for Intervening in Non-Compressible Haemorrhage
Source: gov.uk (2025-09-29)

DASA competition for the Defence Medical Services (DMS) and UK Research & Innovation (UKRI) to address Non-Compressible Haemorrhage (NCH).

Introduction

DMS & UKRI are seeking novel interventions starting at Technology Readiness Level (TRL) 2-4, in both combat and civilian settings.

Despite significant improvements in combat casualty care, and reductions in overall mortality, patients with significant NCH face a high chance of dying from their injuries before they can reach a surgical facility. This risk applies to both service men and women injured on duty, but also affects civilians afflicted by life-threatening NCH such as those caused by motor-vehicle accidents, falls from height or inter-personal violence (including the use of knives).

Launch webinar

On 16 September 2025, DASA hosted a launch webinar providing further detail on the problem space. You can view the webinar below.

Home Building Fund — EDG Ironmonger Ltd
Source: gov.uk (2025-04-09)

A development loan from Homes England helped EDG to convert a derelict vacant office building to create 37 apartments for first-time buyers and key workers in central Coventry.

In 2021, Homes England worked for the second time with EDG Ironmonger Ltd (“EDG”) to provide the SME housebuilder with a development loan.

The funding helped EDG to convert a derelict vacant office building to create 37 apartments for first-time buyers and key workers in central Coventry. The funding was legally contracted in 111 days from credit approval, demonstrating that even during challenging times, Homes England can provide SMEs with access to much needed funding at pace.

This was the second development loan to EDG which enabled them to deliver complex projects in areas with largely unproven values. The first scheme was the conversion of a mixed-use scheme including 63 apartments, known as The Co-Operative in Coventry City Centre.

The Co-Operative was difficult to ‘traditionally’ fund due largely to unproven residential values in the location. The barriers were overcome with development funding from Homes England and EDG were able to complete the scheme ahead of schedule, under budget. The loan facility was repaid two years early and the scheme has proven residential values within the city and acted as a catalyst for other developers.

Neil Edginton, Managing Director of EDG, said:

This is our second deal in Coventry with Homes England and we are keen to do many more. Homes England has a shared ambition of supporting the creation of outstanding homes, so we are aligned entirely, which really assists us in the delivery of complex projects.

The Homes England team were true partners in both projects, and we look forward to continuing and growing our successful working relationship with the team there.

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 HD Salon 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 HD Salon 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
- Armed Forces Day
- Reserve Forces Day
- Discounts
- 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.

UK Statement to the Eighth Review Meeting of the Joint Convention on the Safety of Spent Fuel Management and on the Safety of Radioactive Waste Management
Source: gov.uk (2025-03-20)

Delivered at the International Atomic Energy Agency, Vienna, 19 March 2025

President,

The United Kingdom remains gravely concerned about the nuclear safety risks associated with Russia’s illegal invasion of Ukraine, including its continued control of the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant (ZNPP), which is preventing the competent authorities of Ukraine from upholding their commitments and responsibilities as a Contracting Party to the Joint Convention on the Safety of Spent Fuel Management and on the Safety of Radioactive Waste Management.

We reject the Russian Federation’s claims of ownership of ZNPP and its reporting of Ukrainian civil nuclear facilities in its national report and presentation to the Joint Convention Review Meeting. We endorse the consistent position of the International Atomic Energy Agency that the ZNPP is a Ukrainian power plant.

Only Ukraine’s competent authorities are entitled to report on ZNPP. The Russian Federation’s inclusion of nuclear and radiation facilities that form part of the territory of Ukraine should be rejected outright by the 8th Review meeting and as President to the Review Meeting, we ask that you ensure this is achieved.

We commend Ukraine for its continued commitment to participate in the 8th Review Meeting and meet the obligations of the Joint Convention for the safety of spent fuel and radioactive waste management in what are exceptionally difficult circumstances.

Russia’s actions have demonstrated a blatant disregard for international nuclear safety and the objectives of the Joint Convention. Russia’s reckless activity in the vicinity of all of Ukraine’s nuclear facilities has created unacceptable risks. It is clear that Russia, in the context of the Joint Convention, is acting counter to the principles of Article 1 on maintaining levels of safety, effective defences against potential hazards and the prevention of accidents.

We express our full support to the IAEA for its work with Ukraine to help decrease the risk of a nuclear accident and ensure the safety of nuclear material and facilities in Ukraine. We are grateful to IAEA personnel who continue to operate under the most challenging of circumstances.

Many ADD measures are specifically intended to prevent cheap imports from countries with lower material and labour costs, e.g. the Far East and Eastern Europe, from damaging EU industry. For this reason, goods from these regions often attract high rates of ADD/CVD.

The 'free at frontier price' for such goods is often considerably lower than equivalent goods produced in the EU. As such, the risk of deliberate mis-description/undervaluation/misclassification to a commodity code with a lower or NIL rate of ADD/CVD must be regarded as high.

Public appeal for information on timeshare scheme
Source: gov.uk (2025-10-24)

SFO expands ongoing fraud investigation into suspected organised crime network selling timeshare services.

The Serious Fraud Office (SFO) is appealing for information from the public in relation to a multi-million-pound timeshare services scheme, as it expands an ongoing fraud investigation from 19 to 24 UK-based companies. The operation is suspected of being linked to an organised crime network.

Its investigation has expanded to include Guardian Executives Ltd, McLaren Consultants Ltd, Prime Engagement Ltd , Regulat Consulting Group Ltd and Sparks Wiseman and Rafe Ltd. These companies were based across London, Manchester, Hove, and York targeting individuals across the country.

Investigators are encouraging people who were contacted by individuals from these companies and purchased its services to contact the SFO.

Members of the public would have been cold- called and offered either an exit or compensation from timeshare or holiday clubs located in Tenerife, Lanzarote and mainland Spain for an upfront fee from January 2018 onwards. It is understood that no services were provided in most cases.

Those who purchased services may also have been contacted again and encouraged to pay another upfront fee to recover their money on the basis that the original approach was fraudulent.

Information can be submitted to the SFO via this link (https://sfo-lne01.egressforms.com/).

Emma Luxton, SFO Director of Operations, said:

The investigation continues to develop as new material is reviewed, building a clearer picture of how these companies operated.

Our renewed appeal is an important step in our investigation and we’re urging anyone with information on these new companies to come forward and support our enquiries.

Maiduguri: city report
Source: gov.uk (2025-04-15)

Looks at the political settlement and systems that shape Maiduguri’s urban development.

Abstract

Maiduguri is the largest city in northeast Nigeria and the capital of Borno State. This report, employing the African Cities Research Consortium’s conceptual framework, delves into the political settlement, city systems and development domains that shape Maiduguri’s urban development. The research draws from secondary and primary data, with the report explaining how the political landscape is marked by power concentration in the state governor, and intersects with issues of “godfatherism” and limited influence for some demographic groups.

This is part of the African Cities Research Consortium (ACRC) programme.
