I visited Chilypep to meet young people from across Barnsley to hear their views on loneliness, social isolation, growing up online and what they want to see in their local community.

[Stephanie Peacock MP @Steph_Peacock]

It was a pleasure to visit Fight for Peace with local MP @JamesAsser.

Through boxing, martial arts, education, and pastoral support they help young people to achieve and thrive. A brilliant example of a organisation doing vital work at the heart of its local community.

'The power is now in your hands. Win or lose, we will always have your back.'

We promised to put football fans back at the heart of the game and that’s exactly what we’re doing.

@lisanandy wrote to fans in the @EFL 2026 Championship play-off final matchday programme detailing how government is putting fans back at the heart of the game.

[Department for Culture, Media and Sport @DCMS]

“Players come and go, managers come and go, but the fans are always a consistent part”

The new Independent Football Regulator will ensure fans have a greater say in how the club they support is run.
Fans will be heard and better informed about how their club operates..

We know how much they matter to communities across the country and new laws mean you’re not alone. We’ve got your back.

This summer, we’re helping families make the most of what our country has to offer.

We’re cutting VAT on attractions and reducing the cost of children’s tickets for cinemas, concerts and meals out.

Because culture, leisure and time together is for everyone, everywhere.

From 1,000-year-old churches to the mills of industrial cities, heritage is the heart of our communities. Keeping the doors open takes more than just passion - it takes investment. Today, £48 million in funding will help repair, renew and transform historic sites across England.
