What's New
Welcome to our refreshed website! We worked closely with the Ministry of Social Development (MSD) – Te Manatū Whakahiato Ora IST, Design, and Digital Accessibility teams to deliver this new look website and updated logo! We needed to move to a new hosting platform as the old one was no longer meeting business requirements and was approaching end-of-life.
As the current MYD website design and imagery was dated, and the website itself lacked a high degree of functionality and responsiveness, with multiple usability and accessibility issues, a ‘lift and shift’ approach wasn’t possible and so a refresh of the website was required.
A huge shout out to our MSD colleagues for all the stellar work they’ve contributed towards bringing the refreshed MYD website to life – we’re proud to call it ours!
