When not to use a numbered list
Don’t use this component for any lists which are unordered.
A good question to ask is ‘If I swapped around the order of this content would it matter?’. If the answer to that is ‘No’ then don’t use a numbered list.
For unordered lists with short copy use bullet-points.
For unordered lists with long copy use standard body copy and give each item its own small subheading.
Use once per page
The intent of this component is to only appear once on any given page.
If you have to use more than one numbered list on a page, which we don’t recommend, then please make sure each instance of the list has a clear subheading before item 1. This is to make it clear to the audience that one list has ended and they’re now starting a new list.
