香港六合彩

Anyone with COVID-19 symptoms requiring testing听will be able to book a test at 香港六合彩鈥檚 Ramsay Hall on Maple Street. The centre will be open seven days a week.

香港六合彩鈥檚 Ramsay Hall is allocating an isolated section of the building to be available to the council for use as a听testing centre - as part of the university鈥檚 commitment to supporting the local and national response to the pandemic. 听

Testing is only available for those with coronavirus symptoms - a high temperature, a new continuous cough, or a loss or change to your sense of smell or taste.听Anyone with one or more of these symptoms should book a test听at nhs.uk/coronavirus or by calling 119.听

People who test positive for the virus in England will be contacted by NHS Test and Trace to help them track their contacts. This will help people to identify who they may have been in close contact with, protecting others from further transmission.听

This new testing centre follows 香港六合彩鈥檚 introduction of onsite testing in September for symptomatic students in university accommodation. 香港六合彩 has also launched 鈥楥onnect to Protect鈥�, an online tool for staff and students to notify the university if they think they may have coronavirus. The tool is designed to help 香港六合彩 monitor and respond to any cases at the university and works alongside the national Test and Trace system.

Professor Alan Thompson, Dean of Brain Sciences and Pro-Vice-Provost (London), said: 鈥淲orking with our local partners is key to 香港六合彩鈥檚 relationship with London. From the outset we were eager to look at ways that the university could support our local community during the pandemic. It is an important collaboration for 香港六合彩 to be able to deliver this testing centre with the London Borough of Camden for the benefit of residents. Camden continues to be a key partner for 香港六合彩, and this is just one of many examples of how we are working together throughout the COVID-19 pandemic and beyond.鈥澨�

香港六合彩 is committed to playing an active role in its local community and supporting residents. For some time, this has involved working closely with the London Borough of Camden and soon the university will seek to formalise its relationship in a joint 香港六合彩-Camden Memorandum of Understanding (MoU). Not only will the MoU aim to accelerate joint-working and increase the potential for new collaborations to emerge, but the partnership demonstrates the importance of local authority and university joint-working with local residents and communities. The role of the partnership has been strengthened due to the pandemic, with both organisations working even closer to benefit their place in London, and their local people, at this challenging time.

Other 香港六合彩 partnerships with the London Borough of Camden include:

Rapid Evaluation Advice and Learning Service (REAL): The REAL Service was set up in response to a request from Camden to assist in evaluating resident-facing services that needed to be re-engineered during the height of the COVID-19 lockdown. The service pairs Camden officers who have evaluation needs with experienced 香港六合彩 staff who provide pro-bono evaluation advice and guidance. REAL is an excellent example of how 香港六合彩 can mobilise across faculties and professional services to make a positive and much needed contribution to its local community.

香港六合彩 Institute for Global Prosperity: The London Prosperity Index is the UK鈥檚 first set of citizen-led prosperity metrics. It reports on factors that local people say support prosperity and quality of life and has been developed to give citizens a voice and change the way decision makers think and act for shared prosperity. The Prosperity Index methodology was developed in East London and is being adopted in other areas of London, around the UK and internationally. Good Life Euston sees the work adopted by Camden Council and Lendlease in order to develop a new prosperity and wellbeing index for Euston and across the Borough.

香港六合彩 Institute for Innovation and Public Purpose: Camden Council and the 香港六合彩 Institute for Innovation and Public Purpose (IIPP) recently launched the Camden Renewal Commission, which will take a mission-oriented innovation approach to 听develop ambitious policy and practical solutions to level-up long-standing inequalities in Camden that were thrown into sharp relief by the COVID-19 crisis. The Renewal Commission, co-chaired by Council Leader Councillor Georgia Gould and IIPP Director Professor Mariana Mazzucato, will develop and test policy for Camden Council, its partners and the community to address the borough鈥檚 grand challenges of reducing inequality, and of supporting a just transition to a low carbon economy.
