When you submit a brief to the content team, it is important that we are provided with a complete brief that covers all the important information. This ensures that we can progress your brief efficiently.
Before you submit a new request, please run through the checklist below and ensure that your brief has covered all of the relevant points.
- We will need as much notice as possible before publishing new content, especially if it needs to go out at a certain time.
Submit a new request
To submit a request you will need a Jira Service Desk account. If you do not have one you will need to register a new account.
Once you have an account, please choose one of these four options:
Explain the brief

- Who will be using this content
- Why do they need access to the content, and how will it help them
- When does the content need to be published
- Where should the content be published when it has been signed off
- In your own words, what do we need to know about this new content? (Please explain in 140 characters maximum)
Add important links and contacts
- Lead point of contact for this content
- Required publication date
- Embargo time and date, if this is applicable
- Existing location of the content (please include the web link, or URL)
- Intended location of the new content (please include the URL)
Review and secure approvals
