How do you do take the HIV test?
SHL makes it easy for Londoners to get a free HIV test when you need one. Order your free postal testing kit online, take a small blood sample from your finger, post it to our lab, and get your results in a few days. This test is highly accurate if done 45 days or more after the last time you may have been exposed to HIV. If you think you may have been exposed to HIV more recently, you don’t need to wait. You can test now and do another test later. The SHL test can detect many cases of HIV after just 3 or 4 weeks. Find out more or order a free test now.
