COVID home testing research study participants only

This process will enable you to request a collection of your COVID-19 home test if you are a participant in the COVID home testing research study so that it can be sent to a lab for analysis.

You should use this process when you first receive your COVID-19 home test kit so that the collection can be booked.

Important note

Only use this process if you have received your home test kit as part of the COVID home testing research study.

Please do not undertake your test before you have a collection booked.

Ideally, the test should be completed 1-2 hours prior to it being collected, in order to maximize the time available for transport to the Test Lab.
