Coronavirus testing site returns to Whitby - here are the two ways you can make an appointment
People in Whitby showing symptoms of the coronavirus will be able to get a test when the mobile testing facility returns to the town tomorrow (July 9).
The drive-through facility will set up at the park and ride site on the A171 Guisborough Road.
It is being organised by the Department of Health and Social Care who have warned people to not just turn up but make an appointment first.
There are two ways to do this depending on which testing group you are part of.
Anyone who is showing coronavirus symptoms should register for a test on the NHS website by clicking here.
