	The SwissFEL facility, planned at the Paul Scherrer Institute, is based on the SASE operation of a hard (1-7 Å) and soft (7-70 Å) X-ray FEL beamline. In addition, seeding is foreseen for the soft X-ray beamline (down to a wavelength of 10 Å), and it is currently also under consideration for the hard X-ray beamline. We have investigated two methods, Echo-Enabled Harmonic Generation (EEHG) and self-seeding for each of the two FEL beamlines. Presently we consider self-seeding the most robust and lowest risk strategy for both lines. The paper discusses our considerations and presents the design of self-seeding implementation for the soft and the hard X-ray beamlines including the layout and simulation results.

	In this paper we present an overview of current and proposed FEL developments at STFC Daresbury Laboratory in the UK. We discuss progress on the ALICE IR-FEL since first lasing in October 2010, covering the optimisation of the FEL performance, progress on the demonstration of a single shot cross correlation experiment and the results obtained so far with a Scanning Near-Field Optical Microscopy beamline. We discuss a proposal for a 250 MeV single pass FEL test facility named CLARA to be built at Daresbury and dedicated to research for future light source applications.
