## Description

UK Biocentre's laboratories in Milton Keynes are being used to analyse swab samples to support the national effort against the coronavirus pandemic\. They are one of the three Lighthouse Labs - the biggest network of diagnostic testing facilities the UK has ever seen\.Operations have expanded rapidly to analyse swab samples to determine whether COVID-19 is present, and capacity requirements are continuing to increase over time \. We have repurposed existing laboratories and built new ones to provide the capacity required for such a significant undertaking\.In order to achieve this level of testing\. new temporary staff have been recruited, and this is expected to continue as the need for staff increases as capacity increases\. To allow these staff to work at Biocentre laboratories in Milton Keynes on this project, UK Biocentre requires the provision of hotel accommodation\.
