New logo, identity and packaging for Cadbury
Cadbury make some of the best chocolate we have here in the UK. Twirls, Time Out, Dairy Milk... the list of their good chocolate is endless. No longer available in the UK, my favourite Cadbury's bar of all time is the Fuse bar.
Anyway, this is a nice update to the brand. Unremarkable when you compare them side by side, but works nicely with the updated identity and packaging.

UK to use Apple-Google API in NHS contact tracing app
I was watching the daily update at the time and as usual with the current UK government, it was framed in a way in which they were taking credit for the initiative.
