A MOBILE coronavirus testing unit is in Sauchie this week with people who are not showing symptoms asked to book as a precaution.

The testing centre is located at Sauchie Hall and will be there until Thursday, January 28, in response to a growing number of positive test cases in the Wee County.

Anyone who lives or works in Clackmannanshire can arrange to get tested, whether they have symptoms or not.

Dr Graham Foster, director of public health at NHS Forth Valley, said: “The rate of positive cases across Clackmannanshire remains concerningly high and we have not yet seen the numbers starting to stabilise or decline the way we are in some other parts of Forth Valley.”

People can visit orlo.uk/ZD1fe or call 0300 303 2713 to book a test.

Anyone who does not have any symptoms should select the option “My local council or health protection team has asked me (or someone I live with) to get a test, even though I do not have symptoms”.
