Please help protect your workers, their families and communities in Nottingham by helping raise awareness and encouraging your employees to get a regular, FREE, Covid-19 test.
Nottingham City Council is extending its asymptomatic testing offer to residents by opening up two new testing centres for people who are not displaying Covid-19 symptoms.
- The Portland Centre, on Muskham Street in The Meadows, will open on Tuesday 2 March.
- Clifton Community Centre, on Southchurch Drive in Clifton, will open on Thursday 4 March.
The two new centres will offer a free, rapid, Covid-19 test and will follow on from the success of the asymptomatic testing at Djanolgy Community Leisure Centre.
The centres are run by Nottingham City Council and will encourage people without symptoms of Covid-19 (also referred to as asymptomatic) to drop in and get a FREE rapid Covid-19 test.
The aim of the centres is to help identify and isolate individuals who have COVID-19 but do not have symptoms and may unknowingly be spreading the virus. Around 1 in 3 people with COVID-19 don’t have any symptoms.

People across the city are being encouraged to get a COVID-19 test at the centre at least once a week so that any unknown Covid-19 infections are controlled.
