Internal service footer
A footer component for use on internal services with no GOV.UK branding
The internal service footer is based on the standard GOV.UK footer component but with the copyright notice and Royal Coat of Arms removed.
You may also want to read our step-by-step guidance on adapting the GOV.UK Prototype Kit for use with internal services, including changing the default font and removing other branding elements.
When to use this component
Use this footer for internal services not hosted on service.gov.uk domains. Users of these services will normally be DWP staff but may also include staff of other organisations such as local authorities.
When to consider something else
If your service is hosted on a service.gov.uk domain you should use the GOV.UK Design System footer component instead. DWP services should follow the guidance for which links to include.
Design goals and metrics
There was a need for a standard footer for services not on GOV.UK service domains, which could be added using the GOV.UK Prototype Kit but did not use the GOV.UK copyright notice or Royal Coat of Arms.
