TLDRoffon

Complete our short survey every Friday by 5pm to help us understand how many students and staff are getting Rapid/Lateral Flow tests.

Now that we are at the end of term we are closing this weekly Covid Testing survey.  Entries for this week's prize draw must be submitted by 5pm on Friday 2 July.

If you are coming to campus regular testing remains important and you can find details of the Arrangements for Covid-testing on our campuses on the portal.

Many people who have Covid-19 don’t have symptoms, so getting tested regularly is an important part of keeping our university community safe.

Covid testing facilities for students and staff are available on all of our campuses through our work with our local councils and our own test sites, for details of Covid-testing on our campuses please see our web page.  If you are a student on placement (e.g. in the NHS or a school), Covid tests may also be available to you at your placement location.

Home test kits are also available to university students and staff without restriction (you do not need to have children in school/college) further details are available on our Covid-testing web page.

Students and staff who are on campus or living in halls should get tested twice a week with 3 days between tests. This is expected by the government and will help us to maintain Covid Safe campuses.

Tell us how many Rapid/Lateral Flow tests you've taken in the last week at any location, including home tests, and enter the prize draw to help us understand how many rapid Covid tests are being carried out and if there are any barriers to getting tested.

We are offering 10 x £10 Amazon vouchers each week to those who choose to enter the prize draw.  If you choose not to enter the prize draw please also complete the survey each week.

The prize draw will take place at 5pm every Friday, responses received after that time will be entered into the following week's draw.  You can see the results of the weekly prize draw in this document.

Take the survey.

Thank you for getting tested regularly, you're helping keep us all safe.
