Until now the NHS had asked people to wait until they were contacted, to help ensure that those who are most vulnerable are protected first – and that remains the case for people anyone aged under 70. If you’re aged 70 or over, have yet to receive your invitation letter and want to arrange your vaccination at a location in Shropshire, Telford and Wrekin, you can now book online. Those 65 years or over, are set to start receiving vaccination invites next week. |
Shropshire Council provide a Freqently Asked Questions page about vaccinations. https://www.shropshire.gov.uk/coronavirus/information-for-the-public/vaccination-faqs/
There is a free transport service for vulnerable residents to get to a vaccination centre.
In order to get help, you must have had a letter inviting you for vaccination in Shropshire, and you must be unable to get there any other way. Subject to availability, Shropshire Council will be able to provide transport to help you get to your appointment and back.
If you or someone you know would benefit from the free transport offer, please contact the council’s COVID-19 Helpline on 0345 678 9028 and select option 0.
People aged 70 and over who've yet to be vaccinated and want to be, can now contact the NHS to arrange a jab.
