Coronavirus testing centres closed – the closest open centre is 30 miles away

Coronavirus testing centres in or near Swindon are reportedly closed this morning.

Several residents have reported attending the sites across the town today, both of which are completely closed – thought to be due to snowfall affecting staffing levels.

Testing centres confirmed closed include:

– Wroughton Park and Ride
– Broadgreen Community Centre
– Greenbridge
– Swindon Borough Council site (Beckhampton Street)

The nearest centre (to Swindon) open today is in Oxford, a 30-mile – or one hour – drive. Anyone in need of a test is asked to call 119 and re-book their slot.
