Today we have launched the NHS COVID-19 App across England and Wales.
The App will improve our track and trace system across the Country and help us understand local outbreaks.
The only personal information that you are asked to provide is the first half of your postcode. The app then lets you know the risk level of the area you are currently in and provides you with information on any specific local measures in place.
The App will alert you if you have come into contact with someone who later tests positive for Covid.
Businesses are now required by law to display Test and Trace QR code posters, you can use the app to scan the QR codes to check-in to different venues.
You can download the app here:
