Burnley are making Turf Moor available as a coronavirus testing site as from this week - open to members of the public.
The club announced on their official website that anyone aged over five years old with coronavirus symptoms can be tested with an appointment made via the government's dedicated website.
"We hope allowing the use of our stadium will allow the NHS and the Government to increase testing locally, help to identify those most at risk from the virus and take the next steps to defeating the virus," said Doug Metcalfe, the club's stadium and operations manager.
