Booking vaccinations at mass vaccination centres

by Claire Young on 6 March, 2021

Not heard about a COVID vaccination yet? 56 or over, or clinically extremely vulnerable or vulnerable, eligible frontline worker, receiving Carer’s Allowance? 

As well as the vaccination sessions being managed by GPs, there’s a second national system, but you can only currently use it if any of the following apply:

  • You are aged 56 or over
  • You are at high risk from coronavirus (clinically extremely vulnerable)
  • You are an eligible frontline health or social care worker
  • You have a condition that puts you at higher risk (clinically vulnerable)
  • You have a learning disability
  • You are a main carer for someone at high risk from coronavirus

The venues aren’t currently as local as GP appointments – for example, from our area you may be offered Longwell Green, Bath Racecourse or Cribbs Causeway. You can book appointments online from this web page: https://www.nhs.uk/…/coro…/book-coronavirus-vaccination/

Check that you meet the conditions, then click the “Book my appointments” button. You’ll need to know your NHS number. You can book appointments for your first and second dose at the same time.
