Lateral Flow Tests are the quickest and easier way to test yourself for Covid-19 in the UK but the majority of universal free Covid testing was scrapped at the beginning of April.
Some exceptions remain in place with NHS workers, carers, prison workers and employees in high risk domestic violence refuges able to access kits.
Although free LFTs are no longer available for most of the general public, they remain the cheapest and most convenient way to check yourself as single tests are priced below £2 at most major pharmacies.
