Bringing vaccinations to the local community was a great success with around 230 vaccines being given on the day.
The NHS in south east London teamed up with the South London Islamic Centre to offer COVID-19 vaccinations to community members from all faiths and none in Lambeth, at a new walk-in COVID-19 vaccination clinic held on Saturday 13 March 2021.
Dena Pursell is a Lambeth Care Navigator who shares her personal experience of vaccination
“I was apprehensive to have the COVID vaccination initially as I didn’t have enough information. After doing a bit of research & attending a zoom discussion with my local GP in Lambeth I got a better understanding of the vaccination process and also the benefits of taking it.
Andrew Eyres, Strategic Director, Integrated Health and Care
High quality mental health care services are of vital importance in a borough such as Lambeth where there are on average more people requiring support with mental health conditions, and not least given the additional challenges that Covid-19 restrictions and increased isolation present to our residents.
The COVID-19 vaccine is the best protection against coronavirus.
Please encourage your friends, relatives and people from your community to get the jab.
Please check out this video from our friends in Stockwell for more information.
