Can’t work from home? Get tested even if you feel fine
If you are a critical worker or can’t work from home, or if others in your household still go out for work, you can get free and regular rapid coronavirus tests every week.
The ‘rapid tests’ are for people without symptoms and provide results within 40 minutes.
1 in 3 people who have COVID-19 show no signs of the virus but could be spreading it to loved ones, or around the community, without knowing.
That’s why it’s important that if you still need to go out for work, you get tested twice a week even though you feel fine, to keep yourself and your loved ones safe.
Rapid testing is available at the following sites Monday to Sunday, from 9am-6pm:
· Brent Civic Centre – Engineers Way, Wembley Park, Wembley, HA9 0FJ
· Bridge Park Community Leisure Centre – Brentfield, Harrow Road, London, NW10 0RG
· Central Mosque of Brent – Station Parade, Marley Walk, London, NW2 4PU
