COVID-19 Testing

From 1 May 2022, most people no longer need to take a coronavirus test and should follow guidance on staying at home if unwell.

Testing remains available to specific groups in order to protect highest risk settings and support clinical care. You can find out if you’re eligible to order a free pack of lateral rapid flow tests at gov.uk or by calling 119.

If you’re a health and social care worker, you should access testing through your organisation. If you’re going into hospital, you should access testing through that service.

Further advice, including what to do if you have symptoms or if you’re a close contact, is available at NHS Inform.
