Message from the joint East Grinstead surgeries 8 January 2021:

Having confirmed our first COVID19 vaccination deliveries, we will begin vaccinations within the next week (subject to changes in delivery dates). NHS England has set out clearly the priority order of groups of residents and frontline health and care workers to be vaccinated over the coming weeks and months.

We will be contacting patients directly to invite them to vaccination clinics which will be held at Meridian Hall, East Court, College Lane, East Grinstead, RH19

We ask that you do not call GP practices directly as we will not be able to assist. This will prevent phone lines being available for people with medical needs and other queries which inevitably stops patients who need our services being able to access them.

Here is a link to information on why people will have to wait for their vaccination – https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/covid-19-vaccination-why-you-are-being-asked-to-wait/why-you-have-to-wait-for-your-covid-19-vaccine

We thank you for your understanding and cooperation throughout this pandemic.
