You should be aware that everyone is now eligible for testing through the NHS portal:
https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/coronavirus-covid-19/testing-and-tracing/ask-for-a-test-to-check-if-you-have-coronavirus/

Priority testing for essential workers is still available through the employer portal:
https://coronavirus-invite-testing.service.gov.uk 
and self-referral portal:
https://self-referral.test-for-coronavirus.service.gov.uk/test-type

We encourage you to participate in the track and trace system if you are called by contract tracers.

We would also encourage you to download the NHS COVID-19 app when it becomes available (it is currently only available to residents on the Isle of Wight). You can find out more about the app and why it matters here.

It is particularly important to remind BAME and hard to reach groups that they can and should get a test if they have symptoms.
