RANDOX - THE HEADLINE SPONSOR OF THE GRAND NATIONAL FESTIVAL
Global diagnostics company Randox became the headline sponsor of the Grand National in a 5-year deal from 2017 – 2021, and in December 2020 the healthcare firm announced it would be extending its partnership for another 5 years.
BUT WHAT EXACTLY DOES RANDOX DO?
Randox focuses on the provision of accurate and timely testing in order to identify risk to health, improve clinical diagnoses and promote preventative healthcare.
Its overall aim is to improve healthcare worldwide, whilst also reducing the burden on clinical services.
Randox’s innovative diagnostics portfolio includes tests for the likes of heart disease, diabetes, Alzheimer’s disease, cancer and stroke.
Around 70% of all medical decisions are based on laboratory test results, and so, not surprisingly, Randox believes that earlier, more accurate and more accessible diagnostics are the key to improving global health and saving lives.

RANDOX’S ROLE IN THE FIGHT AGAINST COVID-19
In early 2020 Randox recognised the threat from COVID-19 and, based on almost 40 years of diagnostic experience, quickly developed a test to accurately identify the virus. Testing at scale commenced within weeks to support both the UK’s National Testing Programme and private clients. Through the enormous effort and commitment of its staff Randox now operates at a capacity of 120,000 COVID-19 samples per day, making it the most productive laboratory in the UK and Ireland and amongst the very largest in Europe.
In February 2021 Randox announced it had completed 10 million tests for the UK’s National COVID-19 Testing Programme.
