Where staffing and premises permit, the county council will offer the choice to provide training and equipment to allow organisations to manage their own LFD testing programme themselves, with ongoing support where required.
This approach has already been successfully implemented with Cumbria Constabulary and Cumbria Fire and Rescue Service with positive feedback received.
Where it's not possible for an organisation to manage their own testing programme, the council is establishing a network of LFD testing sites across the county which eligible staff will be able to visit to get a regular test.
