From 1st April 2021, Walker Pharmacy will become distribution point for COVID-19 lateral flow test kits.
The kits are free of charge, 1 kit is needed per person. 1 kit contains 7 tests. These should be done twice weekly and the results, whether positive OR negative, reported according to the pack instructions.
The most common circumstances that will prompt a person to undertake regular tests are:
- They are a child at school or are in a bubble with school children;
- They work at a school or are in a bubble with school staff;
- They have to leave the house for work;
- Their local council has advised them to test; or
- Their GP or another healthcare professional has advised them to test.
If you require help with the test or have questions about the pack, please phone 119 and the dedicated NHS team will assist you.
