Lateral flow devices to be made available for self-testing

Llanidloes library will become a location for people to collect lateral flow devices for covid-19 testing from Monday.

Powys County Council is making the devices available from a number of libraries across the county from 7 June., including Welshpool Library.

"The new library service is for people who do not have COVID-19 symptoms," said a council spokesperson.

"People with symptoms should continue to book a test at our testing centres across Powys or request a test by post by visiting www.gov.uk/get-coronavirus-test or calling 119 (7am to 11pm). People with hearing or speech difficulties can call 18001 119."
