Due to the delivery schedule for these vaccinations we will have to alter our system for giving these to ensure that we have enough for all our eligible patients. We will be contacting these patients inviting them to specific organised clinics. Invitations will be going out soon and the clinics will be held in November. If patients are unable to attend their chosen clinic then alternative arrangements can be made. We will be requesting patients to bring their invitation letters with them to the clinics. Although these clinics are for invited patients, there will not be appointments slots so that patients can attend at their convenience between the hours advertised. Eligible patients under the age of 65 will also be vaccinated at these clinics and will be able to attend whichever date is convenient for them.
