New Vaccination Centre Opens In Lutterworth

A new Covid-19 vaccination centre has opened at Feilding Palmer Hospital in Lutterworth today.

It will provide vaccinations for patients registered with the Masharani Practice and Wycliffe Medical Practice, which are on the same site.

Some patients of these practices have previously been offered appointments in Oaby, but those who were unable to travel to the site at Leicester Racecourse will now be offered a local appointment.

The vaccination site is being jointly run by Leicestershire Partnership Trust and South Blaby and Lutterworth Primary Care Network and is vaccinating health and social care staff as well as the public.

Caroline Trevithick, Executive Director of Nursing, Quality and Performance for the Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland clinical commissioning groups said: “Feilding Palmer Hospital has been open throughout the pandemic for outpatient appointments and it now also offers Covid-19 vaccinations to priority patients.

“We want to make it as easy as possible for patients to get their vaccinations and this centre will be really accessible for patients in the Lutterworth area. We continue to deliver the vaccine to the top four priority groups as and aim to complete vaccinations for these four cohorts by mid February, as scheduled.”
