Thank you to everyone who has taken part in the testing programme so far.

This week we started our 12 week programme to reward those students who continue to support regular testing at our university testing centres.

The more frequently you test, the more rewards you can access, including charitable donations and entries into a draw to win £500 cash or an iPad.

We’ve listened to student feedback and have included free edible treats with every test. To find out more about other rewards please visit the token of our thanks webpage.

All you need to do is book your test

You will be given food rewards at the point where you drop off your sample. If you want to take part in the charitable donation and competition entry all you need to do is scan the QR code at the testing site.
