“Can we please remind everyone that all Covid test sites are of great importance to the national effort to suppress the virus; and ultimately save lives!

“Can we also make it clear that whilst the play park to the rear of the Glebe Park Centre remains open to the public; this can only be accessed via Maria Street.

“This is in order to minimise persons coming in to contact with others who may potentially be carrying the virus.”
