Aberdeenshire Council will cease its covid mobile testing and community collect programme at close of play on Thursday, 14 April.

The decision follows the recent Scottish Government announcement confirming that people without covid symptoms will no longer be asked to take regular lateral flow tests from Monday 18 April.

The council’s programme will end on the previous Thursday (as Friday 15 April is a public holiday).

The operation throughout Aberdeenshire has resulted in:
• 200,000 kits being issued,
• 40,000 kits being given out by communities, and
• 5,500 observed tests being undertaken.

In addition to operating pop-up centres, the council converted three mobile library vehicles to enable residents to undertake lateral flow tests safely in their own communities without the need for lengthy travel.
