The people giving up their time to help doctors with the Covid vaccine rollout have been praised.

Abbie Panks is one of the volunteers who has been helping out at St James Medical Practice in King's Lynn.

She said:

"I have to say it's been buoyant and that's the both the medical team, the volunteers and the patients.

"I spoke to a couple of ladies earlier that were coming down for their vaccines and they just said they were really privileged to be here.

"It's amazing and in terms of why I've come forward and volunteered, the NHS have done so much for everybody over the last few months and it's an opportunity to take a little bit of weight off.
