I think the first damselfly is possibly an immature Blue-tailed male (not sure about this) , then there are 4 Common Blue damselflies, female, male, male, female.

The bee (No.1, top row) is Andrena angustior.
The fly (No.4, top row) is a Soldier Fly, Sargus bipunctatus (spelt off by heart  )

Wow you guys are amazing! I was crossing my eyes over those damselflies for ages, and still none the wiser. Great work
The family classifications of the spiders are close enough for me, they give me some name to give them, so thanks for that No. 9 spider
Really appreciate the help, thanks to everyone! |

That looks nearer the mark. Can't comment on the bee, I haven't a clue. |

the bee is a male Andrena - can't really be done to species from a photo, although the strongly curved mandibles and pale hairs on face are good for A. fulva Tawny Mining Bee
