Community testing centre locations and opening times
Community testing centres are walk-in centres – you do not need to make an appointment. Each centre is open for a limited time to offer rapid coronavirus testing but may open again in the same location, depending on community infection rates.
Centres are often in libraries in areas where case numbers are or have been high. Libraries make suitable testing centres as they are in the heart of our communities and easy for most people to get to on foot, by bike or by bus.
