Text formatting

Bullet points

To create a bullet point list:

  • use asterisks * or hyphens - to make bullets
  • make sure there is a space after the asterisk or hyphen
  • leave an empty line space before the bullets start, and one after

For example:

Leave a line below this:

* then an asterisk for a bullet
- or use a hyphen

See the GOV.UK style guide for the style and punctuation rules on using bullet points.
