Latest update on local access to boosters

Shared by South Cambridgeshire District Council community duty officers on Monday 13 December. Please look out for further updates.

‘Following the Prime Minister’s announcement on Sunday, the NHS Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Clinical Commissioning Group (which is responsible for the vaccination programme locally) shared a short summary about how people can access primary and booster vaccinations locally. We feel this is helpful, so wanted to share the situation with you as it currently stands:

  • Those aged 30+ or those who are clinically vulnerable who had their second vaccination at least three months ago can now book via the National Booking System or by calling 119 (you can book from two months, or 61 days, with appointments offered from three months onwards)
  • Those aged 18+ who had their second vaccination at least three months ago will be able to book via the National Booking System or by calling 119 from Wednesday (15 December)
  • They are currently not offering walk-ins for boosters across our area, but the ‘evergreen’ offers for people to walk-in for their first or second jab or their third primary dose (with a letter from their GP) is still live at Queensgate, Grafton, Oak Tree, Horsefair and The Eatons (not Chesterton Bowls Club due to limited parking availability)
  • They are working hard to open up new appointments across our area, and only sites with current availability will show on the National Booking Service
