COVID-19 Vaccination

Great news, we have now contacted all of our patients in groups 1-9 for their covid vaccination. If you fall into these groups and have NOT been contacted please call us to arrange your invitation now.

May be an image of text that says "HM Government COVID-19 VACCINE PRIORITISATION 1. Residents in a care home for older adults, and their carers 2. Over 80s, frontline health and care staff 3. Over 75s 4. Over 70s, and clinically extremely vulnerable individuals 5. Over 65s 6. Under 65s with underlying health conditions 7. Over 60s 8. Over 55s 9. Over 50s"

The NHS is now ready to deliver a vaccination programme for England so that those who need it most will be able to access vaccinations as soon as they are available.

A prioritisation list has been produced in order for the vaccine to be delivered to groups who will need it first. The NHS will contact you when you are eligible to receive the vaccine and provide you with information about location and date. In the meantime, we would ask that people do not contact the GP Surgery about when the vaccine will be available or to try to book an appointment for it.

We will contact you when it’s the right time to come forward.
