Westminster COVID-19 Vaccination Updates

Dear all,

New Vaccination Centre

We are pleased to share that a new large vaccination centre is due to open in Westminster today, Wednesday 3 March on Edgware Road. The new centre will launch as part of the next stage of the Covid-19 vaccination roll out, focussing on the latest priority groups - people aged 60 and over and people with long term health conditions.

The site will build up to deliver 1,000 jabs each week initially and offers an alternative to GP-led and hospital services that are already set up across North West London.

The centre is based at Etc. venues Marble arch, 86 Edgware Rd, London W2 2EA and there are travel arrangements organised in the area to manage the additional footfall.

People aged over 60 need not wait for an invite and can go online and book their appointment on the national booking system for this centre right away at www.nhs.uk/covid-vaccination

NHS England will officially announce to the public the next centres opening this week.
