Eligible Glossopdale residents invited to book spring Covid booster

Glossopdale residents who are aged 75 and over are being invited to book an additional Covid booster jab. 

The NHS has launched its spring booster programme, with second booster jabs also being offered to care home residents and the most vulnerable over-12s. 

There will be clinics on Saturday 2 April from 10am to 4pm and on Saturday 21 May (times to be confirmed). 

Walk-in sessions also continue every Tuesday evening throughout April from 5.30pm to 7.30pm. 

All of the above are at Unit 2-3 Glossop Brook Business Park, Glossop Brook Road, SK13 7AJ. 

Appointments can be booked here: https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/coronavirus-covid-19/coronavirus-vaccination/book-coronavirus-vaccination

Those who are eligible should have been contacted.

There needs to be a gap of at least six months since your previous dose.  

Last month, the UK's vaccine advisers said an extra dose would help top up protection against severe Covid-19, with some immunity likely to be waning. 

It comes as Covid cases continue to rise across the UK, with an estimated one in every 20 people infected.
