Latest release
Release 508 – Tuesday 20 October 2026
What's New
A new 'Check if you have an NHS account' option has been added to the NHS login landing page, making it simpler for users to confirm whether they already have an account and reducing potential sign-in confusion. Further changes include:
- 'forgot password' and 'create account journeys' have both been updated; each journey has its own 'check your email' page
- the old 'Trouble with logging in?' card and /register/not-sure-account removed
- a 'visit our help centre' link has been added
- email address persistence across this new journey
Background changes
We've made technical improvements to supporting systems and services to enhance stability, responsiveness and operational efficiency. These changes are not visible to users but help maintain a reliable service.
