It’s been a great experience working with such a diverse and talented group of people, all focused on delivering this option to people with questions about coronavirus. We’re grateful to all the teams for making this happen and the chatbot Ave, named after Cancer Central’s founder Avril Chester, is a great addition to the NHS inform website.
