This is our wonderful Archie, manning the TeamDigital equipment collection hub for homeworkers. Service with a smile 🙂

If you see this message when using your trust laptop or PC at home for the first time, this is because the trust laptop is not connected to our network. This message will eventually time-out, and you should then be ok. If not, please call the service desk 💙

Shout out to trust colleague Sarah, who is working remotely from Singapore supporting the SCS Governance team. We asked her what Awingu felt like from there, and she was very happy. Real benefit from working outside UK core hours to time shift to more bandwidth 💪 give it a try.

You asked for Facebook, and we gave it to you. Unfortunately it's now eating up all our internet bandwidth. In the pic below FB is 1st & 3rd for volume of traffic. This affects homeworkers, video conferencing, and tele-consulting. Please use sparingly until our upgrades arrive 🙏

Apologies for the slow performance of NHSmail earlier today. There was a national incident, that is now believed to be resolved

A excellent tip for those of you Awingu users on a Mac. @AJaiswal108A has noticed that Awingu maps the @ key to where it would be on a PC keyboard.

To check the status of NHS central systems and networks, there is a new app for your smartphone. Available in all app stores, search for 'nhs national service status', download and follow the instructions. Available to all with a .nhsnet email address.

Here's what's going on at the moment

See below how use of our AWINGU platform has exploded in recent weeks. Corona took us by surprise, as it did you, but we're expanding a number of services to support home working.

A number of requests have been received asking about the correct remote access portal when working from home. This is the correct site address: worcsawingu.co.uk

Please beware, keep your NHS badge hidden until you get to work ..
