A pop-up vaccine clinic for people yet to get protected against Covid-19 is to be held at the home of Bath City Football Club.

Vaccination teams will be at Twerton Park in Bath between 11am and 7pm on Wednesday 26 and Thursday 27 January to offer first, second and booster doses to all eligible adults over the age of 18.

No appointment will be necessary for people wishing to get vaccinated, however those requiring a booster vaccine will need to have waited at least three months since the date of their second dose.

Last week, more than 150 military families received the vaccine when a vaccination clinic was held at Bulford Camp on Salisbury Plain.

Joy Saunders, Community Director at Bath City Football Club, said: "We are pleased to play our part in combating coronavirus by hosting the vaccination bus and giving people another opportunity to get their vaccines locally." On this occasion, Covid-19 vaccines will not be available for children aged between

12 and 17-years-old, however those in this age group can still get protected by

visiting one of the many fixed vaccination sites across the region.

Bath Racecourse, the Steam Museum in Swindon and Salisbury City Hall currently have good appointment availability for people of all ages, and can also offer the vaccine to people without a booking.

Latest figures show that while around 85 per cent of all adults across the region have had a booster vaccine, more than 82,000 are still yet to have a single vaccination.

Approximately 35,000 people in Wiltshire are without the vaccine, while in Bath and North East Somerset and Swindon the figure stands at around 24,000 and 22,000 respectively.
