On 23 March 2020, the Prime Minister announced the first national lockdown during an address to the nation. Behind the scenes, the teams had already begun working around the clock to build products, services and content to help users understand the new rules and the help that was available.
This included creating the frontend form of the Clinically Extremely Vulnerable People Service in 2.5 days, and more in a significant collaboration between GDS, NHS, a number of government departments, local authorities and the private sector.
Only a few days later, we launched another service with other government departments, which allowed businesses to offer support. We also introduced content hubs to better organise and surface content for users looking for information about education, running a business, and workplace safety.
