An update on testing within the borough. It appeared on the Lewisham site last week, hence one of the dates has passed.

If you need a test in Lewisham, you can book an appointment to visit the drive-in or walk-in mobile testing unit or order a home testing kit.

The mobile testing unit is available every three days at Lewisham Lorry Parks, Catford, London, SE6 2TX (adjacent to Laurence House) open at 10.00.
A mobile testing unit will be in Lewisham on the following dates:
Local testing unit
From this week, walk through testing will be available at Vanguard car park in Deptford, offering appointments to people without cars who can safely travel on foot, without coming into contact with others.
It will be fully operational from Friday 11 September offering tests from 8am to 8pm, 7 days a week.
When to ask for a test
If you have COVID-19 symptoms, you should book a test immediately.
You need to take the test in the first five days of having symptoms. On days 1 to 4, you can get tested at a test site or at home. On day 5, you will need to go to a test site as it will be too late to order a home test kit.
