Lincolnshire NHS says by the end of this week, five more local vaccination centres will go live. Patients in these areas are being contacted to organise their vaccination appointments. The NHS will contact people and local people are asked not to contact the NHS.

The additional sites will be:

The Storehouse, Skegness

Lincolnshire Showground, Lincoln

Springfields, Spalding

John Coupland Hospital, Gainsborough

Marisco Medical Practice, Mablethorpe

They will join the existing vaccination sites in Lincolnshire, which are:

Hospital Hubs:

Lincoln County Hospital

Pilgrim Hospital, Boston

Local vaccination centres:

· Louth Community Hospital

· Meres Leisure Centre, Grantham

· Waddington Branch Surgery, South Lincoln

· St Marys Medical Practice, Stamford

· Franklin Hall, Spilsby

· Sidings Medical Practice, Boston

· Rustons Sports and Social Club, Lincoln

· Portland Medical Practice, Lincoln

Lincolnshire NHS says the next steps for the county’s is to roll out the programme further through two large vaccination sites and a roving service across the county.

The vaccination services in Lincolnshire, as in the rest of the country, are focused on delivering the vaccines to the key priority groups (residents in a care home for older adults and their carers, those aged 70 and over, frontline health and social care workers and the clinically extremely vulnerable) to ensure that we are able to meet the targets set by the government.
