ALERT

Covid Vaccinations

Patients Aged 16 – 17

All 16 and 17 year olds can now have their Covid-19 vaccine.  This is one dose.

Currently this age group is not able to book an appointment via the national booking site and GPs will not be vaccinating in practice.  However you can use walk-in sessions to get vaccinated - this includes at Saints.

You can search all ‘Grab a jab’ drop-in vaccination sessions that will vaccinate 16-17 year olds with no appointment needed here

Please get vaccinated before the return to school/college to protect yourself and others.

We are ONLY offering Covid vaccinations at Langtree Park, Saints Rugby Ground, this facility is being run by ALL the GP Surgeries in St Helens and we look forward to seeing you there.

We now ask all patients attending the Surgery to wear a face mask or face covering; which can be homemade. This is to reduce the risk of transmission of COVID19 and to help prevent a second peak of infection.
Thank you.
