Today the Eagles Community Arena played its part in the fight against coronavirus (COVID-19) as a Mobile Testing Unit (MTU).

The Army-run MTU facilitated over 150 drive-thru swab tests in the arena’s car park.

Volunteers for our Eagles Community Foundation also made the arena’s facilities available as a welfare base for members of the 2nd Battalion of The Yorkshire Regiment, based out of Catterick.

If you have symptoms of coronavirus (COVID-19), you can ask for a test on the NHS website.

Essential workers, including NHS or social care staff, residents and staff of a social care home or anyone with a verification code from their employer must apply for a coronavirus test on GOV.UK.
