Free Lateral Flow Covid-19 Testing

Covid-19 lateral flow testing kits are available for people without coronavirus symptoms in Lanarkshire. You can also order them online or pick them up from local mobile testing centres.

You can also receive an immediate test at our asymptomatic testing sites at Airdrie and Larkhall Leisure Centres from 9:30am to 5.30pm - 7 days a week. You will receive your results in around 45 minutes. Any positive cases will then be confirmed by PCR test.

Testing people with no symptoms can help stop the spread of infection.

Further information on the location of your nearest mobile testing centre, ordering online testing kits and what support is available for people who need to self-isolate is available by visiting: www.nhsinform.scot/testing

Anyone who receives a positive test result will be asked to self-isolate. Dedicated assistance is available to anyone who needs to self-isolate, including financial support. For more information on these and other types of available support, please contact the National Assistance Helpline on 0800 111 4000 or Textphone on 0800 111 4114.
