Cumbria County Council is appealing for anyone who visited a particular bar in the city on specific dates to take a precautionary Covid-19 test.

Anyone who has visited the Lloyds Bar on Botchergate in Carlisle on the following dates is being asked to go for COVID-19 testing as soon as possible as a precautionary measure.

This is because local contact tracing has identified someone who has tested positive who was at Lloyds during these times:

  • Friday 24th July from 6.30pm through to 3.30am the following morning (25th July)

  • Tuesday 28th July from 10.30pm through to 3.30am the following morning (29th July)

  • Observe social distancing rules

  • Wear face masks or coverings in enclosed public spaces

  • If you have symptoms, self-isolate and get tested

  • Follow advice to self-isolate if asked
