The wording on our 404 pages is not very useful - see example

I'll ask the content group to suggest new wording. There's some good advice at https://digitalhealthcheck.co.uk/2024/01/council-websites-and-404s-page-not-found-errors/

Thanks to Colin Stenning for flagging this

Any changes should only apply to new installs, but we should provide a doc to show existing councils how to make this change themselves
