The Covid-19 booster jab is now being offered to everyone aged 18 and over when they become eligible, three months (91 days) after their second dose.

In most cases, people will get their boosters by booking through the National Booking System (NBS) or calling 119, or you may receive a text from your GP. If you book an appointment via NBS and then receive another appointment via your GP, please remember to cancel your other booking.

Some drop-in vaccine clinics are also taking place, and these are listed below as soon as they are confirmed.

If you have any questions about your vaccine, please contact the National Booking Service, call 119 or our local vaccine contact centre on 0191 283 1925.

You can also find more information on Covid-19 vaccines on the NHS website or Gov.uk.

If you haven’t had your first vaccine yet, it’s not too late – just get in touch using the details above or visit a drop-in clinic listed below.
