Free Covid Tests in Westminster
Testing is a vital tool for protecting people and our communities. If you cannot work from home and therefore have to leave your home for work purposes, please get tested for coronavirus even if you feel well. The more of us that get tested, the quicker we’ll be able to stop the spread of the virus.
Westminster is now offering two types of testing:
- For people who have symptoms of coronavirus (a new persistent cough, high temperature or a loss or change in sense of smell or taste).
- For people who are not showing any symptoms. This is known as asymptomatic or symptom-free testing.
Tests for people without symptoms
Symptom-free tests are available at the following locations seven days a week from 10am – 4pm:
- Little Venice Sports Centre, 10 Crompton Street W2 1ND
- Westminster Cathedral Hall, Ambrosden Avenue SW1P 1QH
- Moberly Sports Centre, 25 Chamberlayne Road NW10 3NB
You do not need to book in order to get a free test. A test takes less than five minutes and results will be with you within an hour.
Walk-through testing for people who have symptoms
The semi-permanent, walk-through testing centres are open seven days a week, from 8am to 8pm. They can be used by anyone with symptoms or who has been asked to get a test.
Testing centres are in the below community halls:
- Greenside Community Centre, 24 Lilestone Street NW8 8SR
- Grosvenor Hall, Vincent Street SW1P 4HB
- Lydford Tenants and Residents Hall, 74 Fernhead Road W9 3EW
A test must be booked in advance at NHS online or by calling 119.
