These channels are accessed on channel 271 (channelbox).

For internet enabled TVs this channel offers a range of choices of internet channel to view. This covers news, entertainment and sport.

In their words channel box is “A new take on video delivery to Freeview ,Channelbox is a bundle of free-to-air TV channels delivered to Freeview 271 via the Internet or App”

More widely this looks like an interesting proof of concept for direct streaming within the freeview channel system.
