Coronavirus testing is available at a range of locations in York and North Yorkshire over the next week.

Anyone who has Covid-19 symptoms is urged to book a free test through the gov.uk website.

In York, there are two testing centres which are open every day, but you need to book first.

There's a drive-thru facility at Poppleton Bar Park and Ride, and a walk-thru centre at the University of York (open to all local residents, not just students).

Elsewhere in North Yorkshire, mobile testing centres will be set up at various locations on certain days, again you must book in advance.
