COVID-19 UPDATE – Friday 10 July 2020

WE ARE TESTING SAMPLES AS USUAL

We test your samples on the working day they arrive at the lab and we report your results by email the same day, as normal.  If you have not received your results, please check your Spam or Junk.

Sample collection kits ordered before 3:30 pm on Monday to Friday will be dispatched that day.  Orders placed after 3:30 pm or over the weekend will be dispatched on the next working day. 

Royal Mail have advised that although the vast majority of First Class post is currently being delivered promptly, some items may take up to 10 days to deliver due to ongoing staffing issues in their network.

When returning samples for testing, please bear in mind that due to this longer delivery window, your samples may not reach us as quickly as you would usually expect. Please check the current Royal Mail transit time before you send them.

If your test is urgent, please consider using alternative means such as Royal Mail Tracked 24, or a similar service, to send your sample so you can monitor its progress in transit to us.

Please note that, following a bio-security audit, the laboratory can only accept samples for testing that have been delivered by a recognised carrier or via the Royal Mail.  Any samples presented for testing without following this protocol will be placed into quarantine.
