The list is being added to all the time – for the latest dates/venues check the Council website . These will also be shared via the Council’s Facebook and Twitter accounts – so please share and retweet them to help encourage people to take up the offer of a vaccination.

National Booking System

The National Booking System (or phone 119) is now open to anyone aged 18 or over and shows all the available sites including those in Kirklees, Calderdale, Wakefield, Bradford, Leeds and beyond.

The sites in Kirklees that are available through the National Booking System now include:

GP Vaccination Programmes

Some GP practices are still running a vaccination programme – so you could be invited by your GP to attend a GP led clinic eg at Holme Valley Memorial Hospital.

Second doses

The evidence from the clinical trials showed that people build up better protection against COVID-19 symptoms when the vaccine is given in two, smaller doses, with an interval between them. If people don’t have their second dose they will not be as well protected as they could be.
