A number of GP practices in the Scarborough and Filey area have additional capacity to deliver Covid-19 vaccinations in the coming fortnight.

If you are a patient with Hunmanby, Filey, Hackness Road, or Scarborough Medical Group practices – and you are eligible for your Autumn booster – you can ring your surgery and you will be booked into an existing clinic.

A spokesperson for Filey and Scarborough Healthier Communities Network primary care network, said: "Anybody over 50 who had their last vaccine more than 91 days ago is eligible unless they have had COVID in the last 28 days."

Patients who are not registered with one of these practices can still access a Covid booster by booking through the NHS National Booking Service or by calling 119.
