A new coronavirus testing site has opened in Keighley.

The site, for people without symptoms of the virus, is at Airedale Shopping Centre.

People can get tested seven days a week - and you don't need to make an appointment.

These test centre will be closed on 24, 25, 26, 27 and 28 December and 1 January - but if you have symptoms some other sites will be open every day including Christmas Day.

Cllr Sarah Ferriby, Executive Member for Healthy People and Places said: “The testing we’re offering at St George’s Hall and the Airedale Shopping Centre is for people who do not have COVID-19 symptoms.

“I would urge people to get themselves tested, to help Bradford district to get back to as normal a life as possible, as soon as possible.

“To improve our chances of detecting positive cases, people who test negative can book themselves a test each week if they wish. By getting tested regularly we can save lives, keep our loved ones safe and help to stop the virus spreading.
