National Booking Service
Prototype environment
This prototype environment aims to be an up-to-date copy of the live service and can be used for reference or demonstration purposes.
- No data entered into this system is stored in any way - all entered information will be lost between sessions
- Any details can be entered into the fields - there is no user lookup and fields like NHS number will not be validated. They do however have to be entered - you can't skip required fields
- To simulate journeys that meet certain conditions (for example, over 75 spring boosters or under 5s), just use a date of birth appropriate to that condition
