There are internal services that have filtering, however, there are multiple styles used and it would be useful to have guidance and examples.

If you've helped users filter something in your service and tested with users, please add your experiences in the comments below.

I worked on a filter pattern that I inherited on Atlas which tested ok with users. Whats the best way to collate all these patterns?

Hi @mat-walker — If you share them on here, that would be great. Or if they are sensitive designs, you can email them to us at designops@digital.homeoffice.gov.uk and we can start collating examples from there :)
