Who is eligible for Covid vaccine this autumn?

This year’s autumn booster is again more narrowly targeted at the very highest-risk groups—specifically older adults (75+), care home residents, and the immunosuppressed—whereas historically the programme extended to a wider swath of the clinically vulnerable (65–74, clinical risk groups) and some health and social care staff.

Please book online if you can, or via your booking link if you received one, to ease pressure on our phones; or call 02890 325679. 

Please do not book if you are not eligible, as we won't be able to give you a vaccine if you attend.
