Swindon Borough Council is reminding people that free Spring covid jabs are available to those who most need them.

A spokesperson said: "Covid-19 is more serious in older people and in people with certain underlying health conditions.
"For these reasons, people aged 75 years and over, those in care homes, and those aged six months and over with a weakened immune system are being offered a spring dose of the Covid-19 vaccine.
"For those eligible, your GP may offer you the vaccine or you can book using the NHS app - https://www.nhs.uk/nhs-app/"
People can also find their nearest walk-in vaccination site via the NHS website.
