## Description

Design for Life is the Government's programme to build a circular economy for medical products by 2045, delivering increased resilience, economic growth, value for money and sustainability\.

This project delivers against the 'Physical and digital infrastructure' problem statement and specifically Action 19 to 'survey existing systems' for decontamination\.
