Vaccination

Our Vaccination Centre Opening Hours

We will accept drop-ins for qualifying people, alongside those people arriving with booked appointments. Details about qualifying people for boosters can be found in the NHS website. There will be a separate queue for booked appointments and drop-ins. 

Please, where possible, book a vaccination appointment through the National Booking System.

Please note the Booster walk ins are not vaccine specific, however 2^nd doses have had to communicate specific vaccine.

The above timetable is for Home Park vaccination opening times. We welcome drop ins for first, second and booster doses of everyone over 12 years old, and 4th dose and spring booster dose of any qualifying person (more information on 4th dose and sping booster on the NHS website). We will accept drop-ins throughout our opening times, and we will only temporarily halt walk ins if the centre is at capacity, for patient safety. We will do our best to avoid this and apologise for any potential inconvenience caused. If you want to avoid any disappointment please utilise the National Booking System.

Testing

The main symptoms of coronavirus are: a high temperature, a new, continuous cough and a loss or change to your sense of smell or taste. Most people with coronavirus have at least one of these symptoms. If you have Covid-19 symptoms, get a PCR test as soon as possible. You can book a PCR test online on the gov.uk website or by ringing 119. We do not offer drop-in COVID-19 testing.

If you don't have Covid-19 symptoms, you should do a rapid test twice a week (every 3 to 4 days), to check if you have the virus. If people test positive and self-isolate, it helps stop the virus spreading. You can do these tests at home for free. You can order a pack of seven tests to be mailed to your home, or pick it up from a pharmacy or a test site. More information on how to get Lateral Flow Tests in the NHS website. If your rapid test comes out positive, you'll need to book a PCR test online, or by phoning 119.
