Design System for the NIHR

Header

The header shows the NIHR logo, and optionally shows navigation entrypoints. It is an essential part of each page's NIHR branding.

Intended behaviour

The header consists of the NIHR logo and an optional Search component. The logo is also a link back to the current site's front page. Entering a search query will return results.

When to use this component

Every site that uses the Design System must use the Header.
