A WALK in vaccination clinic is back again this weekend at the Artrix in Bromsgrove.

Those who are 18 and yet to receive their first jab are being urged to attend.

The clinic will be open from 9am-5pm on Saturday July 10 9am to 1pm on Sunday July 11.

Booking is not required, but residents must bring photo ID with proof of age.

Dr Kathryn Cobain, director of public health for Worcestershire said: "Across Worcestershire, our vaccine programme has been really successful, the numbers of people taking up the offer of a vaccine have been positive. We are so grateful to everyone who has come forward so far across the county.

"I am so thankful to our local NHS partners who have once again joined with us to put on a walk-in clinic in Bromsgrove.

"This should make it easier for our younger residents to get their first vaccine, as they can just drop by and be seen.

"Clinics like these make it much easier and more convenient for people to come forward and get vaccinated.

"Vaccination is so important, not only as it protects the person receiving the vaccine, but it also helps to protect their loved ones and local residents.”

Simon Trickett, chief executive officer for NHS Herefordshire and Worcestershire CCG said: “As the nation gears up for the removal of Covid restrictions in July, it is more important than ever that all adults get their vaccine, to protect themselves and those around them.

“I am thankful to all partners and volunteers who are supporting by taking part in the ‘Grab a Jab’ weekend in Bromsgrove.”

There is no need to be registered with a GP to access the vaccination and the one site team will be able to access NHS numbers if documentation is provided.
