Staffordshire County Council is asking all residents who need to be out and about during the lockdown to have regular Covid-19 tests. They also require anybody in a Covid hotspot area to book a test.
Staffordshire residents are now able to drop into Community Testing Centres to get a rapid Covid-19 test.
Walk-ins are subject to availability at each individual site – to secure a slot, booking on our community testing sites page is still recommended. People with symptoms or those who have been asked to self-isolate as a close contact of a Covid case should not attend.
