Spring Covid Vaccination Programme

The Spring Covid Booster campaign for 2024 starts on Monday 15th April 2024, prioritising Care Home residents and Housebound patients, and ends on 30th June 2024. 

Only those over 75 or who are immunosuppressed qualify for a Spring Booster, as recommended by the JCVI. Anyone else should have enough immunity from the Autumn 2023 booster to last them through to the Autumn 2024 campaign. 

Healthwest are running clinics for adult vaccinations only, details of which are provided below. All eligible patients will be sent an invite by the end of April. Anyone under 18 who requires a vaccine will need to book via the National Booking System:
