Modern design - a new look that's been designed with a digital-first approach and is fuss- free. 3. Accessible colours - a brighter palette that’s easier for those with visual impairments to view and read info online. Rolling out a new look will take time, so our old logo and new logo will co-exist for a while before our refresh is complete.
