TwitterIn June 2023, GVA of reported DCMS sectors increased at a greater rate than the UK as a whole. GVA of the included DCMS Sectors grew by around 1.0% compared to May 2023, while the UK as a whole grew by 0.5%. This followed a 0.1% estimated growth in DCMS Sectors in April (up 0.2% in the whole UK economy) and a 0.9% estimated increase in May (0.1% decrease for the whole UK economy).
GVA of reported DCMS Sectors (excluding Tourism) in June 2023 was 10% above February 2020 levels, which was the most recent month prior to pandemic measures being introduced in the UK. By comparison, GVA for the whole UK economy was 0.8% higher than in February 2020.
In June 2023, Digital Sector GVA grew by around 1% from May 2023, while GVA for the UK economy grew by less (0.5%). This increase followed a 0.9% increase for the Digital Sector in April (up 0.2% for the whole UK economy) and a 0.2% estimated increase in May (0.1% decrease for the whole UK economy).
GVA by the Digital Sector in March 2023 was 15% above February 2020 levels, which was the most recent month prior to pandemic measures being introduced in the UK. By comparison, GVA for the whole UK economy was 0.8% higher than in February 2020.

The DCMS Sector total reported here includes Civil Society, Creative Industries, Cultural Sector, Gambling and Sport. Tourism is not included as the data is not yet available (see note in data table). Figures for the Digital Sector and Telecoms are presented separately as responsibility for these policy areas now sits with the Department for Science, Innovation and Technology.
These Economic Estimates are Official Statistics used to provide an estimate of the economic contribution of DCMS Sectors, and of the Digital Sector, in terms of gross value added (GVA), for the period January 2019 to June 2023. This current release contains new figures for April to June 2023.
Estimates are in chained volume measures (i.e. have been adjusted for inflation), at 2019 prices, and are seasonally adjusted. These latest monthly estimates should only be used to illustrate general trends, not used as definitive figures.

The findings are calculated based on published ONS data sources including the Index of Services and Index of Production.
These data sources provide an estimate of the monthly change in GVA for all UK industries. However, the data is only available for broader industry groups, whereas DCMS sectors, and the Digital Sector, are respectively defined at a more detailed industrial level. For example, GVA for ‘Cultural education’ (a sub-sector of the Cultural Sector within the DCMS Sectors) is estimated based on the trend for all education. Sectors such as ‘Cultural education’ may have been affected differently by COVID-19 compared to education in general. These estimates are also based on the composition of the economy in 2019. Overall, this means the accuracy of monthly GVA for DCMS sectors is likely to be lower for months in 2020 and 2021.
The technical guidance contains further information about data sources, methodology, and the validation and accuracy of these estimates. The latest version of this guidance was published in November 2022. The only significant change since then is that figures for the Digital Sector and Telecoms are now presented separately as responsibility for these policy areas now sits with the Department for Science, Innovation and Technology.

TwitterThis dataset results from an anthropological project that investigated the mediations that advice enables between the state, the market, charitable initiatives, families and ordinary citizens in the UK as well as selected European sites affected by austerity politics, namely Spain and Switzerland. The welfare state is not just a political-economic but a moral formation, which creates multiple boundaries of inclusion and exclusion through a variety of actors, officials and institutions. These boundaries at times challenge, and at other times reproduce, dominant logics of extraction and accumulation. Advisers are often the last call for help for their clients/dependents who find themselves increasingly at the mercy of local authorities, immigration regimes, landlords, banks and debt collection agencies. But competing visions of moral worth and social justice continue to permeate the everyday deliberations of those who administer, support and advocate advice. Struggles and dilemmas over how best to instantiate social justice, provide assistance and balance individuals’ moral judgments against the collective good frequently occur. In analyzing advice as part of a broader landscape of governing the welfare state, our research explored both the dovetailing of and divergence between political, economic and legal imperatives and domains.
To accomplish our research, four main themes (1) Empathy and expertise, (2) Brokerage or self-help, (3) Shifting advice frameworks, and (4) Comparative insights on UK-based problems, were addressed through eight research sub-projects. (2) Ryan Davey ‘Debt advice in Plymouth’; (3) Tobias Eule ‘Face-to-Face Interactions at the State/Market interface in Germany/Switzerland’; (4) Alice Forbess ‘Housing and welfare advice in Portsmouth; (5) Ana Gutierrez Garza ‘Advice as social struggle: housing and debt in Spain’; (6) Deborah James ‘Debt advice in London’; (7) Insa Koch ‘Social housing and austerity politics on council estates in England’; (8) Anna Tuckett ‘Providing immigration advice in austerity UK’; (9) Matt Wilde ‘Advice and the UK Housing Crisis’. These include statements of methodology; tables of contents of fieldnotes; anonymized ethnographic interviews and anonymized fieldnotes.
This two-year anthropological study, building on earlier research by the principle investigator and others, undertakes an ethnographic investigation of advice. Under conditions of continuing economic crisis, scholars and policy-makers are having to reshape their assumptions about the nature of society: particularly in respect of who receives assistance and who funds and arranges it. Where the 'usual' targets of welfare and benefits were the poor or destitute, they now include those who work but cannot make ends meet, and who experience increasing numbers of complex problems for which they need advice. And where the 'usual' provider of such things, at least in the post-war years, has been the state, this is increasingly not the case. As the economic crisis proceeds apace and the state's role is being whittled down, access to the counsel of experts is nonetheless increasingly essential. Without prejudging the outcomes, the project will investigate novel arrangements and their unintended consequences. It will explore innovations in advice giving provided by existing offices (under more traditional state-funded regimes), by new sources and novel agencies (under non-governmental and market-driven schemes), and by the social movements, self-help and informal network-based arrangements to which many are increasingly having to turn for counsel and support. The project proposes intensive research along two axes. Firstly, it explores in detail selected sites and cases in the UK (specifically England where a very particular set of legal/welfare arrangements is in operation), 'drilling down' to examine specific institutional settings, themes and topics at a range of different scales and levels. Topics and sites include a focus on the three specific areas of housing, debt and immigration advice, both within and beyond particular institutional settings, and law courts where litigants have started to engage in self-representation. Secondly, it uses two carefully-selected cross-national comparisons in order to illuminate, and gain a critical perspective on, aspects of UK welfare-related advice processes which are often taken as natural/inevitable by local policy-makers. Across these different settings, the project will: (1) document the ongoing effects on advice giving of the withdrawal of legal aid funds, including the rise of self-litigation; (2) explore the new roles assumed by bureaucrats, intermediaries and self-help groups, who are increasingly important in the advice encounter; (3) investigate whether funding cuts have caused the dwindling of the much-vaunted empathy that advice-givers are often required to deliver and whether, in the process, advisers are becoming less effective at shaping the behaviour of those they counsel; (4) look at how the very character of advice is changing as a result of these complex transformations; (5) explore variations between selected national settings, to illuminate the changing and context-dependent character of advice in the UK.

Twitter15 November 2024: We have made a small number of revisions to the DCMS Economic Estimates Business Demographics 2023 report and data tables, following the identification of an error. This affects figures for Tourism Industries in 2023 in Tables 2 to 6; 2023 Audio Visual figures in Tables 2, 4, 5 and 6 and the 2022 DCMS total in Table 2.
These economic estimates are National Statistics providing an estimate of the contribution of DCMS Sectors to the UK economy, measured by the number of businesses.
In March 2023 there were 584,920 businesses in the included DCMS sectors, a decrease of 3,245 (0.6%) from March 2022. This is compared to a decrease of 1.5% in UK registered businesses overall.
In March 2023 the vast majority (87.3%) of businesses in included DCMS sectors fell into the micro (0 to 9) employment band, a slightly lower proportion than for UK registered businesses in general (89.1%).
In March 2023, 79.5% of included DCMS sector businesses had a turnover of less than £250,000, a higher proportion than for UK businesses in general (68.1%).
There were 200,600 businesses in the digital sector, a decrease of 9,090 (4.3%) from March 2022. This is compared to a decrease of 1.5% in UK registered businesses overall.
The vast majority (91.9%) of businesses in the digital sector fell into the micro (0 to 9) employment band, a slightly higher proportion than for UK registered businesses in general (89.1%).
In March 2023, 78.3% of digital sector businesses had a turnover of less than £250,000, a higher proportion than for UK businesses in general (68.1%).
These statistics cover the contributions of the following DCMS sectors to the UK economy;
Users should note that there is overlap between DCMS sector definitions. Estimates are not available for the civil society sector, because they are not identifiable in the data source used for this release.
These statistics also cover the contributions of the digital sector and telecoms to the UK economy. Users should note telecoms sits wholly within the digital sector.
The release also includes estimates for the audio visual sector, which is not a DCMS sector or digital sector but is “adjacent” to them and includes some industries also common to DCMS and digital sectors.
A definition for each sector is available in the published data tables.

This release provides estimates on a number of measures covering social cohesion, community engagement and social action over the period of April 2020 to March 2021. The survey ran over the course of a year, recording respondents’ answers consistently over the year during different periods of lockdown measures. It is therefore likely that COVID-19 pandemic impacted respondent’s behaviours and responses, although we can not state that any change is caused purely because of this.
The Community Life Survey is a nationally representative annual survey of adults (16+) in England that aims to track the latest trends and developments across areas that are key to encouraging social action and empowering communities.
The survey moved from a face-to-face mode to an online (with paper mode for those who are not digitally engaged) in 2016/17. The results included in the release are based on online/paper completes only, covering the eight years from 2013/14, when this method was first tested, to 2020/21.
Differences between groups are only reported on in this publication where they are statistically significant i.e. where we can be confident that the differences seen in our sampled respondents reflect the population.
Responsible statistician: Aleister Skinner
Statistical enquiries: evidence@dcms.gov.uk, @DCMSInsight
Estimates from the 2020/21 Community Life Survey show that among adults (16+) in England:
Most adults (95%) agreed that if they needed help there are people who would be there for them.
66% of respondents met up in person with friends or family at least once a week, a significant decrease from 2019/20 (74%).
The proportion of adults reporting they felt lonely often/always remained similar to 2019/20 at 6%.
Measures for life satisfaction, happiness and self-worth have decreased from 2019/20.
79% of respondents agree that they were satisfied with their local area as a place to live, an increase from 2019/20 (76%).
65% of respondents agreed that people in their neighbourhood pull together to improve their neighbourhood; this was higher than in 2019/20 (59%).
41% of respondents have taken part in civic participation, 19% in civic consultation, and 7% in civic activism.
27% of respondents agreed that they could personally influence decisions in their local areas.
There was a decrease in the proportion of people giving to charitable causes. 63% of respondents reported having given to charitable causes in the last 4 weeks (at the time of responding to the survey). This was lower than in 2019/20 where 75% of respondents reported doing so and the lowest since the Community Life Survey began in 2013/14.
There was a decrease in the proportion of people formally volunteering. 17% of respondents reported formally volunteering at least once a month, the lowest recorded participation rate since data collection in the Community Life Survey.
There was an increase in the proportion of people informally volunteering. 33% of respondents had volunteered informally at least once a month, the highest percentage on record in the Community Life Survey.

The project compared trends in the wage premium between the US and Britain to provide insights into the way unions operate in a period of union decline. For Britain, the analysis was based on data from the British Social Attitudes Surveys (BSA) 1983-2002, the Labour Force Surveys for 1989-2000 (LFS) and the Workplace Employee Relations Survey 1998 (WERS98), which are all held at the UK Data Archive (see web page links below). For the US, the Current Population Surveys 1973-2002 (not held at UKDA) were used. Users should note that this deposit includes data from BSA and WERS98 only, not LFS, and covers Britain only, for the years 1983-2001.

Geographic coverage: UK
In the period July 2021 to June 2022, there were approximately 4,332,000 total filled jobs in the DCMS Sectors (excluding Tourism) - representing 12.9% of all UK filled jobs, up from 12.7% in July 2020 to June 2021 and 12.0% in 2019 (pre-pandemic). This reflects that, for DCMS Sectors (excluding Tourism), the number of filled jobs have grown faster than the UK overall since July 2020 to June 2021 (3.2% DCMS vs 1.7% UK) and also compared to pre-pandemic (7.9% DCMS vs 0.1% UK).
In percentage terms, within the included DCMS sectors, the Digital sector has seen the largest employment growth since 2019 (pre-pandemic). Over the same period, of the included DCMS sectors, only the Gambling sector and Sport sector have seen declines in employment. Please note, there is substantial overlap between the DCMS sectors.
Although there is wide variation between sectors in terms of demographic breakdowns, overall the proportion of filled jobs held by women was lower in the DCMS Sectors (excluding Tourism) (44.1%) than the UK overall (47.9%). DCMS Sectors (excluding Tourism) have a slightly smaller share of jobs filled by people from ethnic minority groups (excluding white minorities) or by people with disabilities compared to the UK workforce overall.

TwitterThe research investigated interpretations of Scotland's imperial role and its displacement as a dominant representation of national identity between c. 1918 – c. 1970. Key aims of the research were to map civil society organisations concerned with empire in Aberdeen, Dundee, Edinburgh and Glasgow; and provide in depth case studies of two key Scottish institutions demonstrating a continuing interest in empire, the Church of Scotland and the Scottish Trades Union Congress (STUC). The research found that the late 19th and early 20th century represented the high point of imperialist enthusiasm in Scotland, manifested in celebrations of the Scottish contribution to empire. Thereafter attitudes to the empire became more differentiated: anti-imperialism and anti-colonialism became a consistent feature of the labour movement in Scotland, middle-class enthusiasm for the Dominions was pronounced in the inter-war years; in the post-war years adjustments were made to the changing British Commonwealth, the process of decolonisation itself provoked hotly contested positions between certain groups in Scottish society. Connections to and interest in the empire were part of the local identities of all four major Scottish cities. Major institutions such as the Church of Scotland and the Scottish Trades Union Congress moved from having divergent perspectives on empire to occasional parallel support for aspects of decolonisation, such as African independence movements. This laid the ground for the emergence of broad alliances on international issues, such as the Anti-Apartheid Movement. The experience of empire contributed to the development of a Scottish internationalism, which has often been claimed as a positive national characteristic. 26 oral history interviews were conducted with 28 participants, broadly divided into two groups – former missionaries and others who were connected to the Church of Scotland, activists in labour movement organisations, NGOs, and race equality organisations: Interviewees were identified through a 'snowball' technique, where contacts initially approached suggested other people. The purpose of the interviews was to explore individuals' attitudes to the British empire, through their experience of living in colonial territories (where this applied), and through activities which contributed to public debates about the nature of empire, colonialism, etc. The interviews contributed information that is not available in documentary form where organisational archives do not exist, or may not ever exist, as well as providing information about personal experiences and views likely only to be documented through interviews. The interviews contribute to the understanding of how attitudes to empire and colonialism changed from the 1950s through to the 1980s, the role of personal experience in shaping attitudes, the interconnections between civil society organisations; and generational shifts in attitudes and discourses.

TwitterThe Community Life Survey collects information about whether adults (16+) have volunteered and given to charitable causes.
This section provides headline data measuring engagement in formal and informal volunteering, reasons for and barriers to volunteering, as well as charitable giving behaviours and views. The data looks at engagement over time, and differences in engagement between demographic groups.
62% of respondents (approximately 28 million people in England) have volunteered in any way in the last 12 months, and 41% (approximately 19 million people in England) at least once a month.
63% (approximately 29 million people in England) of respondents said they had given to charitable causes in the last 4 weeks. This is a decrease from 2019/20 where it was measured at 75% and the lowest proportion recorded in the CLS.
Formal volunteering at least once a month in the past 12 months decreased in 2020/21 (17%) from 2019/20 (23%), the lowest that it has been recorded in the CLS.
Informal volunteering at least once a month in the past 12 months increased in 2020/21 (33%) from 2019/20 (28%), the highest that it has been recorded in the CLS.
Information about volunteering in DCMS sectors, as well as charitable giving has historically been collected in the DCMS ‘Taking Part Survey’. Volunteering and charitable giving results will vary between Taking Part and Community Life Survey. This is likely due to differences in the methods of collection and question phrasing.
In May 2019, DCMS published ‘Community Life Survey and Taking Part Survey 2017-18: Focus on volunteering by age and gender’. This report combines data from the Taking Part and Community Life surveys to explore experiences of volunteering by gender and age.
In December 2020, DCMS published ‘Community Life COVID-19 Re-contact Survey 2020- Main Report’. This report covered public beliefs and behaviours relating to social cohesion, charitable giving, volunteering, wellbeing and loneliness for adults in England during March to July 2020, and how these have changed compared with a period before the COVID-19 pandemic.

Schools are heavily reliant on funding, so government spending decisions shape the performance of primary schools. Tuition fees and donations that turn the lights on in independent schools are key to primary education revenue. The necessity of primary education protects it from large funding cuts since the UK economy relies on an educated and skilled population. Performance is sensitive to the number of children of primary school age, so a decade of slumping birth rates is catching up to the industry. Overall, in the five years to 2025-26 industry revenue has grown at a compound annual rate of 0.8%. Commitments from the UK government is presenting revenue decline in 2025-26. The Institute for Fiscal Studies highlights how the core schools’ budget for the year is increasing in cash terms to reach £63.9 billion, allowing spending per pupil to increase by 1.6% in real terms. However, despite funding increases, profit for primary school’s has been tight over the past five years due to high operational costs driven by wider inflationary pressure and staff shortages swelling energy costs and wages. But, the success of independent schools is propping up the overall picture for the industry. These sites are also supporting revenue growth as even though the implementation of VAT on school fees in January 2025 has weakened demand, the continued rise to school fees is propping up income. As a result, revenue in 2025-26 is rising by 0.8% to reach £43.8 billion. Continued support for this essential service from the government over the next five years provides some stability to the outlook for future revenue. However, chronic staff shortages and the rising additional needs of children will place schools under intense pressure. Additionally, the declining number of primary school pupils due to falling birth rates presents a risk to funding totals. On the other hand, artificial intelligence technology provides an opportunity for the industry to streamline processes and enable teachers to keep their focus on teaching, which may help to solve some of the staff retention issues. Revenue is expected to grow at a compound annual rate of 1% over the five years through 2030-31 to reach £46.1 billion.

These surveys were carried out to establish the status and breeding distribution of common scoter in Britain during 1995 and 2007. The 1995 survey was the first national survey, however other regional surveys and estimates suggested that the British population was in decline. The 2007 survey was designed to explore whether the species had continued to decline. The 1995 survey was carried out by the Wildfowl and Wetland Trust (WWT) and the Irish Wildbird Conservancy (IWC) with financial support from the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB), the Joint Nature Conservation Committee (JNCC), Scottish Natural Heritage (SNH) and the Wildfowl and Wetland Trust (WWT). The 2007 survey was carried out by the Wildfowl and Wetland Trust (WWT) and the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB). These surveys were both carried out under the Statutory Conservation Agencies and RSPB Breeding Birds Scheme (SCARABBS) partnership, with support from the SCARABBS partner organisations.

TwitterThis is a mixed-methods data collection. This project aimed to understand how the loss of employment at Longbridge has affected former MG Rover workers, their families and their neighbourhoods. It examined the processes of adjustment and change using a holistic approach. This approach included looking at loss of job and subsequent work trajectories, the impacts on household’s income, well-being, migration and commuting as well as the wider 'ripple effect' for their neighbourhoods.
Specific objectives comprise:
1. To collate evidence related to the economic and social impacts of the closure;
2. To use this evidence to evaluate the differential impact of change;
2. To consider the role of community resilience through networks in minimising the impact of manufacturing decline;
4. To evaluate agency intervention in dealing with the impacts of closure; and
5. To contribute to the discussion of policy and practice around effective intervention and strategies for areas affected by manufacturing decline.
The research included a mix of quantitative and qualitative methods. The main body of the research consists in a third wave survey of around 300 ex-Rover workers using the methodology and sample used by the Work Foundation in its 2006 report.
