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 Deanshanger Colts FC 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 Deanshanger Colts FC 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

South London: groundwater situation
Source: gov.uk (2025-04-02)

The latest update on monitored groundwater levels and whether there are any groundwater alerts or warnings in force.

This document provides information on the groundwater situation for South London.

Flooding from groundwater can happen when the level of water within the rock or soil that makes up the land surface (known as the water table) rises. The level of the water table changes with the seasons due to variations in long term rainfall and water abstraction. When the water table rises and reaches ground level, water starts to emerge on the surface and flooding can happen.

Lead local flood authorities (the unitary or county council) are responsible for managing the risk of flooding from groundwater. They set out how they plan to do this in their local flood risk management strategies.

The Environment Agency has a strategic overview for all sources of flooding including groundwater. This means they will provide support to other risk management authorities. They supply information in the form of monitored groundwater levels. In some areas that have historically experienced groundwater flooding, the Environment Agency provide a groundwater alert or warning service.
Comet Interceptor Monitoring & Evaluation Support
Source: gov.uk (2025-08-19)

Evaluation of the UK's role in the Comet Interceptor space mission.

Comet Interceptor is the European Space Agency (ESA)’s first F-Class (fast, flexible, and low-cost) mission, set for launch in 2029 in collaboration with JAXA. It aims to be the first mission to intercept a pristine comet, providing valuable insights into the early solar system.

The UK has played a leading role in designing the mission, with £16 million of national funding from the UK Space Agency planned, complementing mandatory ESA contributions. This national funding aims to achieve:

Increased scientific knowledge and UK research competitiveness, including positioning the UK as the partner of choice for future space science missions.

More international collaborations and partnerships, bolstering the UK’s international reputation and enhancing the reach of the UK space sector.

Inspired and upskilled space talent pipeline to expand the UK’s academic base and address the technical skill gaps outlined in the R&D People and Culture Strategy.

UK scientific influence is secured through the key Interdisciplinary Scientist (IDS) role for Prof. Snodgrass at the University of Edinburgh, as well as leadership over two critical instruments: MIRMIS (University of Oxford) and the Fluxgate Magnetometer (Imperial College London). As launch is still years away, most scientific benefits will emerge in the longer term as researchers analyse cometary gas, dust, and plasma data from the target comet fly-by. Early scientific trends are precursors to larger future impacts, though preparatory science is underway, with publications on Comet Interceptor’s objectives and instruments emerging since 2019.

Source: gov.uk (2025-04-07)


For the purpose of section 370, relevant taxable earnings means general earnings ‘for’ a tax year that are taxable earnings under section 15 ITEPA 2003 (see EIM40101 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/employment-income-manual/eim40101)), so that the employee is UK resident for that tax year.

Where general earnings are for a tax year prior to 2025-26, relevant taxable earnings would not include any general earnings that would not have been taxable under section 15 if the employee made a remittance basis election under section 809B ITA 2007 for that year.

For tax years commencing on or after 6 April 2025, individuals can no longer elect to be taxed on the remittance basis, as the non-domicile regime was abolished and replaced with a tax regime based on residence.

Where general earnings are for a tax year commencing on or after 6 April 2025, if the individual is a qualifying new resident (see EIM34010 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/employment-income-manual/eim34010)) for the tax year for the purposes of Chapter 5C of Part 2 ITEPA 2003, any qualifying foreign general earnings for that tax year under section 41T ITEPA 2003 (see EIM43565 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/employment-income-manual/eim43565)) are not relevant taxable earnings for the purposes of section 370.

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 Penrith Pumas WRC C.I.C 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 Penrith Pumas WRC C.I.C 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
- 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.
CA11510 - General: Definitions: Chargeable period, accounting period and period of account
Source: gov.uk (2025-08-20)


CAA01/S6

Capital allowances are made for a chargeable period. A chargeable period is:
- a period of account (income tax);
- an accounting period (corporation tax).
Accounting period has the same meaning for capital allowances as it has for corporation tax. This means that the definition in CTA09/S8 and CTA09/CHAPTER2/PART2 applies (see CTM01400 (http://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/company-taxation-manual/ctm01400) onwards).

This is the basic definition of period of account for income tax purposes.

A period of account is any period for which trading, professional or vocational (shortened to trading below) accounts are made up.

In any other case a period of account is a tax year. For example, the period of account of a person who has a property business is a tax year.

Trading accounts may be drawn up for overlapping periods. If there is an overlap between two periods of account the period that is in both periods of account is deemed to fall within the first one only. For example, accounts may be drawn up for the year ended 30 June 2018 and then the 12 months to 31 December 2018. The period 1 January 2018 to 30 June 2018 is in both periods. It falls within the period of account 1 July 2017 to 30 June 2018. It does not fall within the period of account 1 January 2018 to 31 December 2018.

There may be a gap between the periods for which trading accounts are drawn up. If so, the gap is deemed to be part of the first period of account. For example, accounts may be drawn up for the year ended 30 September 2017 and then the year ended 31 December 2018. The period 1 October 2017 to 31 December 2017 is not within any period of account. It is deemed to be part of the period of account ended 30 September 2017.

A period of account cannot be longer than 18 months. If accounts are drawn up for a period that is longer than 18 months you should split the period for which the accounts are drawn up into separate periods of accounts. This is how it is done. The first period of account is the first 12 months of the period for which the accounts have been drawn up. The next period of account starts when those 12 months end, and you continue like that until the whole period for which the accounts were drawn up has been allocated to periods of account.

Example

Dylan sends in an account for the 27-month period 1 January 2017 to 31 March 2019. This is split into 3 periods of account for capital allowance purposes:
- 12 months from 1 January 2017 to 31 December 2017,
- 12 months from 1 January 2018 to 31 December 2018, and
- 3 months from 1 January 2019 to 31 March 2019.
Dylan's capital allowances and balancing charges are calculated for his periods of account 1/1/17 to 31/12/17, 1/1/18 to 31/12/18 and 1/1/19 to 31/3/19. The capital allowances for all 3 periods of account are deducted from and any balancing charges are added to the trading profits for the period 1/1/17 to 31/3/19 to arrive at his taxable profits for that period.
Chickenpox: public health management and guidance
Source: gov.uk (2025-04-07)

The diagnosis, management and epidemiology of chickenpox (varicella).

Post exposure prophylaxis (PEP) is offered to individuals at high risk of severe chickenpox following an exposure. This includes immunosuppressed individuals, young babies in their first week of life and pregnant women.

After reviews of the effectiveness of antivirals and varicella zoster immunoglobulin (VZIG) in prevention of chickenpox, antiviral medication is now the post exposure treatment of choice for all immunosuppressed patients and pregnant women, regardless of stage in pregnancy. The only group of individuals where VZIG is recommended for PEP is those neonates exposed within 1 week of delivery, either in utero from maternal infection or post-delivery.

VZIG will only be issued for susceptible neonates exposed within 1 week of birth (either in utero from maternal infection, or post-delivery) or if oral antivirals are contraindicated due to malabsorption, or renal toxicity, or because the patient is less than 4 weeks of age

See the detailed guide ‘Guidelines on post exposure prophylaxis (PEP) for varicella/shingles’ (https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/post-exposure-prophylaxis-for-chickenpox-and-shingles).

Chickenpox is an acute, infectious disease caused by the varicella-zoster virus (VZV) and is most commonly seen in children under 10 years old. This virus can also cause shingles (herpes zoster) (https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/shingles-vaccination-programme) which tends to be more common in adults. The disease can be more serious in adults, particularly pregnant women.
