Over 70s Can Contact NHS for a Covid Vaccine

Covid vaccine

Local GP led vaccination centres continue to contact over 70s and those who are clinically extremely vulnerable, including those who are housebound, to book in vaccinations.

However if you are aged over 70, have not had a Covid vaccine and have not yet been contacted either by the NHS nationally or locally you can now contact the NHS direct to make an appointment at a regional vaccine centre. 

You can do this by either booking online through the online booking service, which can be found here: https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/coronavirus-covid-19/coronavirus-vaccination/.

Or by calling 119, lines are open 7am till 11pm seven days a week.

It may be helpful to have your NHS number which you can access through the following link:
