If you need help, please ask
Our Isle of Wight COVID-19 helpline is for anyone who needs information about COVID-19 or support because of self-isolation. If you are alone with no local network of friends, family or neighbours, please call (01983) 823600 to ask for help.
Test, record, repeat…and isolate!
Please keep taking the rapid response LFT tests twice a week. Taking a regular test protects you and those you love. You can pick up test kits at pharmacies.
Record the result whether it’s positive or negative. If you get a positive result, isolate and book a PCR test.
Vaccination walk-ins continue throughout August
Walk-in clinics for both Astra Zeneca and Pfizer vaccinations are available in August. The information is updated regularly.
Find your space
Escape the crowds and discover the Island’s beautiful open spaces this summer.
This week our spotlight is on Golden Hill Country Park. It has paths going through woodlands, open grasslands and alongside the historical Golden Hill Fort.
The fort was built on a good vantage point, with spectacular views looking in all directions, particularly south towards Freshwater Bay.
The willow maze is a new feature for 2021 that is popular with families. There is information around the site for those who want to explore the interesting history of the military establishment too!
