Face coverings are now optional for anyone attending the surgery. Your doctor or nurse may still wear a mask during your consultation.

If you live in England, you can use this service to find a walk-in coronavirus (COVID-19) vaccination site. You can get a dose of the COVID-19 vaccine from a walk-in site without an appointment. You do not need to be registered with a GP.

 You can get these at walk-in sites:

• 1st and 2nd doses for people aged 5 years old and over (ending for many on 30^th June)

• boosters for people aged 16 years old and over, plus at-risk children aged 12 to 15 years old

• spring boosters for people aged 75 years old and over, plus people aged 12 years old and over with a weakened immune system

• additional primary doses for people with a severely weakened immune system aged 12 years old and over

You can also book or manage a coranavirus vaccionation online, if you are registered with a GP.

We will not be offering coronavirus vaccines as part of the spring booster programme.

From 17 May 2021, people in England who have been fully vaccinated against COVID-19 can demonstrate their vaccination status for international travel. A full course is currently two doses of any approved vaccine. Vaccine status will be available from: 

• the NHS App which you can download from app stores 

It may take more than a week for your identity to be checked and verified so you can use this service.

If you cannot access this online service, and you have had 2 vaccines, you can request a paper letter from the NHS by calling 119. Only call 119 if you are due to travel abroad in the near future and have had your second dose more than 5 working days ago. It may take 7 working days for the letter to arrive.

This practice is not able to provide you with a letter that shows your COVID-19 vaccination status.

When you're planning your travel, check the latest information on demonstrating your COVID-19 status when travelling abroad on the gov.uk website. Make sure there is time to get  proof of your vaccination status before you leave.
