Mason Moore | Hinckley Reporter | 14 January 2022

TWO drop-in vaccination sessions for doses of the Pfizer vaccine are being held this weekend for anyone aged 18 and over.

They will be held on a ‘walk in’ basis inside of Hinckley Leisure Centre in Argents Mead park, meaning that anyone can show up, without having to book in advance.

The first session will be held tomorrow (Saturday, 15 January), from 9am until 12pm.

The second session will then be held on Sunday, 16 January, from 9am until 12.30pm.

Anybody who is in need of their first vaccination will be able to receive one.

Second doses will be handed out, but only for those who have been vaccinated with Pfizer already, and have waited eight weeks since being given their first dose.

Booster vaccines will be also handed out, but only to those who have had waited at least three months since they had their second vaccination.

It has been advised that people have their NHS numbers handy to help save time.

Hinckley and Bosworth Borough Council (HBBC) have assured people that anybody can attend, stating: “Visitors to the area [are] welcome, plus uni students.”
