Volunteers Thanked For Supporting Vaccine Clinics In Market Harborough

Market Harborough Rotary Club has been handed £750 by the town’s Medical Centre as a thank you for its support during Covid-19 and flu vaccination clinics.

35 volunteers have dedicated over 700 hours in the past year to help manage car parking and patient queues at the Coventry Road surgery.

The cash, which will help with the club’s support of local and international projects, was presented at the Rotarians’ Christmas party.

The money was presented to President Darren Iliffe at the Rotarians’ Christmas party by surgery practice manager Julie Simpson

Medical Centre Practice Manager Julie Simpson said: “We are very grateful to all those who have turned out to help at the vaccination clinics from flu clinics in September 2020 up to the present time.

“The partners and staff at the medical centre want to show their appreciation.

“It makes a big difference to have Rotarians in their yellow vests outside the centre directing the clinics and the pharmacy as well as helping people to sanitise their hands.”
