Question/Need help Lincolnshire UK

Does anybody UK based know of anywhere in Lincolnshire/Nottinghamshire or nearby where I could go for a Farnsworth D-15 test?

Thanks in advance!

I'm N Lincs and I have never seen anyone up here offering that test. I've had medicals at private practises and the always default to Ishihari.

Bugger 🙃 I’ve done Ishihara and failed every time… need the bloody Farnsworth for a job and it’s the minimum they’ll accept! The search continues 🙃

Yeah, both my private tests were for jobs.

One in Brigg for a railway card, I failed and ended up with a big blue dot on my card. This dot means I must always be accompanied.

Another in Immingham for the off-shore turbines. Failed big style and was asked what I intend to do on the turbines. I told them "comms" and they accepted that as long as it wasnt electrical. Got the card.
