@36degrees @romaricpascal are you able to provide a review of this suggestion to support the work @Katrina-Birch is doing to recruit users to our upcoming research.

We're still waiting on the survey link to sign up.

@CharlotteDowns A slightly random suggestion and I realise this may not be possible but what if the banner wasn't full width? As in, what if it was the width of the main layout, but still right up against the menu. There's something about it being full width that makes my eyes skip over it to the main content of the page

Closing as we are not currently recruiting for user research
