Message from Caroline Farrar @RBWM

“We saw and heard from some amazing and inspiring people at the start of the week as the NHS began to roll out the Covid-19 vaccination programme from hospital sites across the country, and closer to home, at Wexham Park Hospital in Slough.

Next week the first local vaccination services will start, led by GPs, practice nurses and community pharmacists, with other services to follow over the coming weeks. Residents will be contacted directly by their GP with an invitation letter for their vaccine. This letter will include all the information they need, including their NHS number. 

Please also see enclosed two leaflets regarding the Covid-19 Vaccination.”

“By Monday we are expecting to hear exactly where these vaccination services will be held.

We know lots of people will be eager to get protected but we are asking people not to contact the NHS to get an appointment until they get their letter.

Your support in reiterating these key messages with your local population will be most appreciated:

  • please don’t contact the NHS to seek a vaccine, we will contact you;
  • when we do contact you, please attend your booked appointments;
  • and please continue to follow all the guidance to control the virus and save lives.”
