Cringleford Surgery, near Norwich, has today joined seven other GP practice sites across Norfolk and Waveney to begin vaccinating patients against Covid-19.
The GP sites will be acting as ‘primary care hubs’; vaccinating patients from their own practice as well as other neighbouring practices.
Seven GP practices across Norfolk and Waveney are poised to start vaccinating patients against COVID-19.
The first practices in our area will be delivering the vaccine from 8am today (Tuesday 15 December) with more sites set to go live in the coming days and weeks.
A new mental health campaign, Not Alone, has been launched to help people who will find this Christmas particularly difficult to deal with.
