Dear S8080 team, I wanted to send a note on behalf of the Office for Students (OfS) to say thank you for your considerable support in helping us get the OfS operational from 1 April. In particular you provided the Umbraco CMS and have stood up four different websites (transition hub, Interim OfS , hub and OfS), some at very short notice. Your team was easy to work with and very responsive. In particular the speed in which they resolved technical issues and supported in house technical staff was much appreciated. We look forward to continuing to work with S8080 to further develop the website and hub.
