First and second doses available for all adults this Saturday
Brentford Fountain Leisure Centre hosting vaccine clinic
According to the latest available information there will be a pop-up clinic at the Brentford Fountain Leisure this Saturday (24 July) offering vaccines to all eligible adults on a walk in basis.
It is understood that first and second doses of both Pfizer and Astra Zeneca will be available. At this stage it is being advised to wait eight weeks after receiving the first does for the second jab.
The clinic runs from 8.30am to 7.30pm and no booking is necessary although booking may speed up the time it takes to get your jab as will bringing your NHS number.
The leisure centre is open on other days for booked appointments only. You can check if you are eligible for a vaccine and make a booking by clicking here.
