Dr Raj Bajwa, GP and Chair of NHS Buckinghamshire Clinical Commissioning Group said:
"We are really pleased to be able to offer this additional service to allow people to get their vaccine as quickly and easily as possible. As we continue to progress through vaccinating different age groups and cohorts we want to make it as easy as possible for everyone to get their jab.
"As we continue to see new variants of COVID-19 appearing around the world it is important to remember that one of our best lines of defence is through the vaccine. It's really important that all those eligible come forward to get their jab when notified."
Further drop-in clinics are planned over coming weeks, keep an eye out for further information.
