ANOTHER pop-up Covid vaccination clinic is coming to Northwich.

This Friday, those over 40 will be able to get their first jab in the town as the roving clinics make their latest stop in the county.

More than one million people across Cheshire and Merseyside have been fully vaccinated against coronavirus so far as the vaccine roll-out continues.

The pop-up clinics include a vaccine bus, owned by Cheshire Fire and Rescue Service and operated by Cheshire and Wirral Partnership NHS Foundation Trust (CWP).

  • The clinics give anyone over the age of 40 the opportunity to get their first dose
  • There is no need to book, residents can simply walk-in
  • All you need to provide is your date of birth, address and an email/phone number

The clinic will be operating between 10am and 4pm on June 18 at the Northwich Memorial Court leisure centre in Chesterway.

Sheena Cumiskey, chief executive of CWP, said: “Partners from across Cheshire have made these pop-up clinics possible, and these clinics give us the ability to reach people in the areas they live, giving them a better access to the Covid-19 vaccine.

“It’s important that when people get the opportunity to have the vaccine to not hesitate and attend one of our clinics, it’s the best way to protect yourself, your family and friends.”

Leader of Cheshire West and Chester Council, Councillor Louise Gittins, said: “I urge everyone over the age of 40 who has not yet had a vaccine to take advantage of the pop-up clinic as soon as you get the chance.

“The vaccinations are free, safe and by attending a roving clinic you don’t even need an appointment.”
