Get tested for coronavirus at Wandsworth Town Hall this week

People who think they may have contracted Coronavirus can get tested at a special temporary testing centre run by the army at Wandsworth Town Hall this week.

A mobile testing unit will be offering tests in the town hall car park between 9.30am and 3.30pm both tomorrow (Friday) and on Saurday.

The tests are being offered to the following categories of people – and if appropriate members of the same household.

• All those working on the front line in health and social care (with or without symptoms)
• Patients in the NHS and residents in care homes (with or without symptoms)
• All essential workers with symptoms and anyone over 65 with symptoms
• Anyone who goes into work because they cannot work from home (eg construction workers, emergency plumbers and those in similar occupations) and has symptoms
• Anyone who has symptoms and lives with someone who meets any of the above criteria

Tests are being offered by appointment only. These must be booked online via the Government’s web portal here.

A full list of those classed as essential workers is published on the same website.
