So two months after a UK government reshuffle, Vicky Foxcroft has been unveiled as the new Charities Minister, taking over that brief from Stephanie Peacock.

Foxcroft is the current MP for Lewisham North and her portfolio will include youth, gambling, loneliness and digital inclusion alongside the civil society.
