Just having a quick look around this morning, and aside from gov.uk and gov.scot, I happened upon:

An (outdated) Citizens Advice page: https://www.citizensadvice.org.uk/scotland/health/coronavirus-what-it-means-for-you/

and an ACAS page: https://www.acas.org.uk/coronavirus

What else is there, and are any of your orgs working on something?
