***Covid Test Centre to open in Andover***

I’m pleased to announce that a coronavirus testing facility will open in Shepherds Spring Lane car park in Andover this Saturday, as part of the government’s programme to increase accessibility.

Both vaccinations and mass testing are absolutely pivotal in navigating our way out of this pandemic.

And having provided Test Valley Borough Council owned buildings to our NHS colleagues for the vaccination centres, I’m really pleased that we’ve also been able to provide this car park as a testing facility – which will enable users to both walk-up and drive to the site. Making it much easier for local residents to get a test.

If you or anyone you know has any symptoms of coronavirus - a high temperature, a new continuous cough, or a loss or change to your sense of smell or taste – then you should book a test, which you can now have in Andover. You can do this online at nhs.uk/coronavirus or by calling 119.

To reassure other users of the car park, the test centre will be located in the far corner closest to the Sainsbury’s side and will be separated from the most popular parking spots closest to the town. Of course, all of our other car parks are free of charge at the moment too.

Neighbourcare would like to thank Simplyhealth for their kind donation of £5,000 which was received at Christmas. We were one of nine local charities that shared an incredible £40,000 given to help charities suffering from reduced incomes during the pandemic. It will make a huge difference to Neighbourcare and all the other charities in receipt of these generous gifts.

Many thanks to W.Bro Peter Hartland and Andover Combined Services Lodge for their kind donation of £50. Neighbourcare will use the money to buy much needed PPE
