Richmond Council's community testing programme is specifically for those people who are not displaying any Covid-19 symptoms.

They are offering these tests to essential workers who live in the borough, including those who work in supermarkets, taxi or mini cab drivers, transport staff, those who work in key public services, schools or in faith-based organisations.

In addition, residents who are volunteering or providing care for a vulnerable person can also apply.

Community tests are done at York House in Twickenham with a lateral flow device, and provide results within 30 minutes. Tests are self-administered under guidance from testing centre staff.

Visit the council webpage to book your test or for further information.

If you do have symptoms, or someone in your household does, please book a test on the national booking site here.
