People living in Weymouth and Portland will be able to have their COVID-19 autumn booster at Portland Community Hospital.

Walk-in vaccination clinics will run on Sunday 4 and 11 December from 9am-2pm. No appointment is necessary.

“We look forward to welcoming people to our walk-in clinic at Portland Hospital," said Mark Marriott, Dorset vaccination programme lead.

"Our vaccination service team from the Linden Unit in Weymouth will be on hand to give the COVID jab, ensuring more people are protected over the winter months.

"Please bear in mind, with a set number of places available we may need to manage the flow by shutting the doors from time to time and reopening when possible.

“If anyone is unable to attend the walk-in clinic dates, we would advise you to book through the NHS COVID booking website or by calling 119 as soon as possible.”
