Congratulations to the BBC South Atlantic Relay Station on Ascension Island as it celebrates sixty years of connecting global 🌍audiences to trusted broadcasting and news.
In an era of shrinking press freedom and rising disinformation, this milestone matters more than ever.
Thanks to this strategically important station, @bbcworldservice can reach millions of people around the world, highlighting the importance of Ascension Island as a member of the United Kingdom family and the value of our partnerships with @ascension_gov & Encompass Digital Media.

Today I handed over my role as Administrator of Tristan da Cunha to Andrew Wells. It has been a real privilege to serve this unique community on the world’s most remote inhabited island. I leave here this weekend, but a piece of my heart will be forever Tristan #TristandaCunha

The UK is taking further action, pledging £88m for humanitarian and early recovery support.

Delighted to begin my first official visit as Minister to the Caribbean here in the Turks and Caicos Islands.
Continuing on from the discussions we had in London with the Premier of Turks and Caicos and partners on the issues that matter - from regional security to resilience in Haiti.
The UK is committed to the prosperity of the TCI's people 🇹🇨. Thank you for the warm welcome.

Today is International #WhaleSharkDay!
Scientists think that St Helena's waters may play an important role in whale shark reproductive cycles.
With the species classed as endangered, the St Helena #MPA is crucial in protecting these gentle giants.
