Customizing the start page

Pages and Layouts · Practitioner

What is this skill?

Customizing the start page involves building a standard GOV.UK or NHS service start page with guidance, eligibility information, and a clear call-to-action button.

Why is it important?

  • First impression – The start page sets user expectations for the service
  • Eligibility checking – Help users understand if the service is right for them
  • Reduce drop-off – Clear guidance prevents users starting journeys they can't complete
  • Design system compliance – Follow the standard start page pattern
