DON'T FORGET: walk-in vaccination clinic available tomorrow in Twickenham

By The Editor 16th Jul 2021

REMINDER that a walk-in clinic will be operating for residents tomorrow, Saturday, July 17 with both Pfizer and AstraZeneca vaccines available.

The clinic will be at Heathfield Junior School (Cobbett Road, Heathfield, TW2 6EN) from 10am – 6pm.

There is also a daily clinic running at Harlequins Rugby Ground Twickenham Stoop.

Read more about it on our news page.

The clinic has been arranged following data showing that around 37% of residents in Heathfield aged 18-39 have not yet had their first jab.

Twickenham residents have been urged to get their second jab as takeup in the borough has been slower than the rest of London..

No appointments will be needed and both Pfizer and AstraZeneca vaccines will be available.

The walk-in clinic will allow people to attend at a time that is convenient for them and means groups of friends can attend together to have their first doses.

It is also an opportunity for people who missed their second dose of the vaccine or haven't got round to booking it, to ensure they are fully vaccinated.

However, please remember that second doses are ONLY given to those who received their first dose 8 weeks' ago or more (no later than 29 May).

This is the latest walk-in clinic available in Richmond upon Thames, with others planned in the weeks ahead around the borough.

People who have had both vaccinations can demonstrate their vaccination status two weeks after their second dose through the NHS COVID Pass.

This can be used for travelling abroad to some countries and at a series of event trials in England.
