Hammersmith & Fulham residents aged 30 or over (or at high risk from coronavirus) can now get a Covid vaccination jab without needing an invitation from their GP.
Eligible frontline health workers and social care workers of any age can also receive the vaccine.
Book your vaccination appointment online or call l 119, free of charge (7am to 11pm, seven days a week) to book your appointment
Or, if you are eligible, you can walk in to the Novotel hotel NHS mass vaccination centre in central Hammersmith – no appointment needed. The walk-in services are open 9am-7pm. If you walk-in, you will need to bring proof of age, your name and address and your NHS number (if you don’t have your NHS number you can still walk-in). You cannot walk-in to get your 2nd dose vaccination – these must be booked via the NHS in advance.
The walk-in services are dependent on vaccine availability and it is possible you will be asked to return at a later date if supplies run out on a particular day. So you may prefer to book to guarantee a vaccine slot.
You can also book your appointment to receive the jab at smaller vaccination clinics held in White City and Hammersmith Grove.
If you have any questions about the vaccine, getting to the vaccine centre or facilities at the centre contact the H&F CAN helpline on Freephone 0800 145 6095, open 8am to 6pm seven days a week, or email: can@lbhf.gov.uk
Free transport is being offered to your Covid-19 vaccination appointment. If you’re over 50 and live in H&F, Age UK is organising free minicab rides to and from the vaccination to make it even easier to get your jab. The service runs until the end of June. Call Amy Shallon on 07947 188 221 or email ashallon@aukc.org.uk
If you would prefer to receive the vaccine at a GP surgery, wait to be contacted.
Like Reading Articles Like This? Help Us Produce More This site remains committed to providing local community news and public interest journalism. Articles such as the one above are integral to what we do. We aim to feature as much as possible on local societies, charities based in the area, fundraising efforts by residents, community-based initiatives and even helping people find missing pets. We’ve always done that and won’t be changing, in fact we’d like to do more. However, the readership that these stories generates is often below that needed to cover the cost of producing them. Our financial resources are limited and the local media environment is intensely competitive so there is a constraint on what we can do. We are therefore asking our readers to consider offering financial support to these efforts. Any money given will help support community and public interest news and the expansion of our coverage in this area. A suggested monthly payment is £8 but we would be grateful for any amount for instance if you think this site offers the equivalent value of a subscription to a daily printed newspaper you may wish to consider £20 per month. If neither of these amounts is suitable for you then contact info@neighbournet.com and we can set up an alternative. All payments are made through a secure web site. One-off donations are also appreciated. Choose The Amount You Wish To Contribute. If you do support us in this way we’d be interested to hear what kind of articles you would like to see more of on the site – send your suggestions to the editor. For businesses we offer the chance to be a corporate sponsor of community content on the site. For £30 plus VAT per month you will be the designated sponsor of at least one article a month with your logo appearing if supplied. If there is a specific community group or initiative you’d like to support we can make sure your sponsorship is featured on related content for a one off payment of £50 plus VAT.
