Covid Lateral Flow tests are FREE

Post by johnnyboxer »

Going to the ABR Festival in 2 weeks

Collect your FREE test kit form Boots or any other Pharmacy or ask NHS to post you one FREE

Get used to it folks ..............lateral flow tests will become a feature of life, in future

Many workers are already doing it 2-3 times a week

It's easy and takes 20 mins

I think it's a great initiative - makes the event more Bio Secure

Completely agree. I'm finishing my 10 day isolation in Wales today - and have done 3 PCR tests as part of that trip over from Spain, which I had to pay for. No problem at all doing free lateral flow tests for access to the festival, in fact I'm planning to do the recommended 2 a week for the whole of my stay in the UK, as I'll also be visiting friends and family - so want to be assured everyone is being safe.

Really looking forward to the festival - I even bought myself a new leather jacket!!

See ya soon! :) :) :)

I was at a large shopping centre place in Limoges yesterday. I noticed a sign and a recessed chute in a wall adjacent to a large supermarket, a bit like a hole in the wall cash point. But it was for CV19 testing. From the instructions it looks like you press a button, a test is delivered through the chute, you do the test and return it, and wait for the result...!

I walked down to our testing centre yesterday ( all of 75 meters ) and they gave me 4 packs of test kits, no questions, paperwork or anything else. I think they were just pleased to see someone new in the place :-)

Festival countdown is on
