Hello! We're a small team working on public digital services. We see great people doing great things to improve services for citizens, but that work gets a bit overshadowed by 'other things' right now. This is a small project to highlight the good stuff and simply say thanks.
Itโs been a lot of work but massive props to the team who just launched our new, clearer, simpler information of getting tested for coronavirus at https://t.co/tGlAGJUzYp
So much hard work, as always, to make it simple. Our blended T&T / NHSD team have been a joy to lead :)
Letโs have a @govcampnorth day of gratitude for all the public servants working so hard in these unusual times. Tweet a Thankyou to someone/a team you want to give kudos to, and weโll spread the word #GCN20#publicthanks
Thankyou Coco and team!
So many public digital services launching under great pressure at this time, and youโre all saving, or reducing the impact on, the lives of many ๐๐๐
During this crisis we delivered an important thing, very suddenly going from a small pilot to national roll-out of a service.
Iโm really grateful and proud of everyone that pulled together to make this happen, and those working to make it even better.
Thanks to everybody who has ever worked at @doteveryone to campaign, educate and help to make tech accessible to all.
So sad to see the work have to stop so abruptly when itโs needed more than ever. The alumni will do amazing things though - hire them!
Doteveryone announces today that we are ending our work after five years of fighting for better tech, for everyone.
Interim CEO, @radiocatherine explains more about the decision to stop here ๏ฟฝ๏ฟฝ

Thankyou @ParliDigital and everyone involved in creating our free range parliament to keep democracy running, while keeping our representatives safe. Also sets a very good example to other orgs :)
Im currently watching the first questions being asked in the first virtual @UKHouseofLords - so many congrats to @ParliDigital + all the staff who made it possible - what a moment ๐ฏ๐๐ป
Feeling proud of our team working on the HMRC platform. High profile launch of the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme and it seems to have gone smoothly ๐๐
Busy day today. Iโm working with a large number of excellent humans right now. Weโre all pulling long days right now, but Iโm immensely proud of what everyoneโs achieving, over and over again. There is some genuinely top class collaboration happening.
Some personal news. Following DExEU's closure I will be leaving @UKCivilService at the end of March. I could not have asked for better, more committed colleagues in 7 departments over 35 years. I will always be a huge supporter of the Civil Service and its wonderful people
I may be slightly biased, but I think the layout, design, and content on both these websites is incredible. The fact that we get to work closely and learn from each other is a huge achievement in cross-department communication.
Itโs Chriiiiiiiistmaaaaasss!
So - who do you want to say thanks to for their contribution to (digital or otherwise) public service in 2019? Give them a shout out with #publicthanks and weโll thank them too. Spread some cheer at the end of this year
