  • Some local pharmacies: We are working closely with some local pharmacies in Hampshire and Isle of Wight to provide vaccinations. People can book an appointment at a pharmacy via the National Booking System online or by calling 119. Some are offering walk-in clinics and you can find more information about what is available locally to you here.
     
  • Walk-in clinics are being advertised in areas local to the clinics to make sure those communities can access them. They provide a limited number of doses on a first-come-first-served basis.

There are a limited number of sites currently offering walk-in clinics, please visit the NHS website to confirm these dates, as some may change times at short notice.
