Outdoor Recreation: Young People
Asked by: Ben Obese-Jecty (Conservative - Huntingdon) Thursday 3rd September 2026 Question To ask the Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, pursuant to the answer of 3 July 2026, to question 13295 on Outdoor Recreation: Young People, for what reason has no further funding been allocated for the Adventures Away From Home Fund. Answered by Vicky Foxcroft - Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State (Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport) The Adventures Away From Home Fund (AAfH) concluded in March 2026. Between 2022 and 2026, DCMS invested £8.6 million in funding to provide over 57,000 bursaries to young people. We greatly value the Fund and the positive impact it had on young people’s skills, development, and resilience. However, we are working to broaden the reach of the young people and organisations we support, and to better align future opportunities with the commitments made in “Youth Matters: Your National Youth Strategy”. This includes the Youth Matters Fund, which will be investing over £400 million to provide local organisations with funding to deliver high-quality youth work and enriching activities, as well as to refurbish or build up to 250 youth facilities. This will include outdoor activities and many other fun activities that benefit young people. The competition for a delivery partner has now closed and we expect the Youth Matters Fund to launch for beneficiaries later this financial year. We have also launched Every Child Can, which will invest £132.5m of dormant assets exclusively across the five key categories of enrichment announced in the Enrichment Framework. This includes opportunities in nature, outdoor and adventure.

Gambling: Licensed Premises
Asked by: Feryal Clark (Labour - Enfield North) Thursday 3rd September 2026 Question to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government: To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, whether Gambling Impact Assessments enable local authorities to disapply the aim to permit presumption by creating a rebuttable presumption against the granting of new gambling premises licences in areas designated as being saturated with existing gambling premises. Answered by Jim McMahon - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Housing, Communities and Local Government) Once introduced, gambling impact assessments will enable licensing authorities to adopt a presumption to reject applications in areas covered by the policy. This will mean that the presumption in favour of granting a licence resulting from the “aim to permit” principle will no longer apply in areas covered by a gambling impact assessment. However, licensing authorities will still be required to consider all premises applications even where a gambling impact assessment is in force.
On the 11th August, the Prime Minister announced that DCMS will consult on repealing the “aim to permit” from the Gambling Act 2005. The consultation will be published in due course. |
