There is a roving Covid vaccination bus that will be working its way around the city. This is a library style bus that has been converted for this purpose. There will be staff available to complete the Covid vaccination to those eligible which includes care staff and many of the people who use our services.

Currently eligibility is listed here: Who can get the coronavirus (COVID-19) vaccine - NHS (www.nhs.uk)

The vaccination staff can come off the bus and vaccinate individuals if this is useful e.g. someone who doesn’t like enclosed spaces and would rather be vaccinated outside the bus. Please just discuss this with the team aboard the bus.
