Angela Anderson, Solent NHS Trust’s Clinical Director of COVID-19 vaccinations, said: “We want to ensure as many people in our communities as possible have access to the COVID-19 vaccine and our roving pop-up clinics are proving to be a very popular way for people to receive their first, second or booster vaccine.

 “The COVID-19 vaccine is the best way to protect yourself and your loved ones from becoming seriously ill and we know that the booster vaccine will give increased protection against the Omicron variant.”

The three mass vaccination centres across Hampshire and the Isle of Wight continue to offer walk-in appointments for all doses between 8am and 8pm seven days a week at Oakley Road in Southampton, St James’ Hospital in Portsmouth and the Riverside Centre on the Isle of Wight.

Vaccinations are also available at walk-in clinics provided by GP practices, outreach clinics, hospital hubs and pharmacies. People are also able to book an appointment through the National Booking System.
