Vaccination sites across Nottingham and Nottinghamshire are offering walk-in appointments for all those 18 and over for first and second doses. Second doses will be available for those who had their first dose 56 days (8 weeks) ago. People aged 16 and 17 can walk into selected sites. See our opening times for walk-in appointments on the NHS website.

Our drive to get as many people as possible vaccinated still very much continues, and we would strongly urge anyone who hasn’t had their first dose, or is due their second, to please come forward, it is not too late.
