According to https://www.kch.nhs.uk/patientsvisitors/coronavirus-covid-19/coronavirus-vaccine: Vaccination Centre at the Weston Education Centre (WEC)

The centre is open every day (Monday to Sunday) from 8.30am to 6pm (walk-ins are available until 5pm).

Note that they advise checking eligibility before booking. The https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/coronavirus-covid-19/coronavirus-vaccination/book-coronavirus-vaccination/ National Booking System landing page conveniently spells out all the eligibilities.


[ETA] eMac, apologies for my total doziness in not really registering the content of your post. No ulterior intention to put you right, steer you elsewhere, whatever. Just real doziness, and probably the stimulus of receiving my own invitation and so getting the awake bit of my brain stuck on just the national system venues.

Thanks for your reply. For convenience, here again is the local CCG's page on walk-in clinics: https://selondonccg.nhs.uk/what-we-do/covid-19/covid-19-vaccine/pop-up-clinics/. It has a link specifically for 12-15 year olds: https://selondonccg.nhs.uk/12-15covidvaccine, and I don't see anything currently scheduled at TJHC.

Does anyone know if any of the vaccination centres offer the 2nd booster / 'Spring vaccine' to people not on the high risk list if they have left-over supplies? I had my booster quite early as I'm relatively high risk due to asthma but my surgery just said 'wait for a letter when eventually eligible'.

As my booster was over 6 months ago I doubt it's still effective. Last time we got our boosters because people hadn't turned up and the clinic didn't want vaccines to go to waste so I wondered if the same is happening with these ones?

Hi Partygirl -


The list of eligible people/high risk has been narrowed significantly (both as a result of data re: who has bad outcomes and also I'm guessing there is a smaller supply/cost savings being applied. They are being quite strict about it this round. I expect once they get data that backs up the idea that another booster is useful they will be opening things up more.


Edit: If you think you meet the criteria that is laid out here - get an appointment with your doctor to get one.

      Nursery school

      Not sure about changing hands but the Peckham Rye one is open and hasn’t had any random closures. Our child is very happy there but there was a resolved Ofsted complaint half way through last year.  Things don’t look good for the Devon nursery owned by the same company - looks like loads of issues with Ofsted which can be seen in its latest report.

      Have a great nhs dentist accepting patients

      By Sue · Posted

      I was in Forest Hill Road today, just past the Rye, and noticed there is a dentist next to the Herne (pub) that has NHS signs outside. I've never had any problems getting NHS dental treatment in East Dulwich, and I get regular check ups. I've been to three  different dental practices here over the years, all with NHS treatment. I think the difficulties are in other parts of the country. Malumbu has a good explanation above. I didn't hear the Radio 4 programme, but I'm guessing that a  radio programme is not going to have time to say where you CAN easily get NHS treatment, and is bound to focus on the negatives and the horror stories, otherwise it would be very boring! ETA: Re children's teeth, I think the major issue is not lack of dentists, it is children being given sugary food, drinks and confectionery which rots their teeth. The education of parents needs to be about this, not just about tooth brushing. And in some cases the poor diet may also be due to lack of money for healthy food. Though of course the lack of dentists doesn't help, if  the tooth rotting can't be rectified by fillings or extraction.

      Boycotting US products

      Well, I hope you like what you see, the hot air, lack of answers and continual blaming things on the last Government and the made up blackhole, I find are nauseating. The man needs to see reality, because I'd guess that if we had a snap election tomorrow and based on the first six months of this parliament, Labour would get trounced. When the election does finally happen and if that isn't before the people rise up and throw this lot out, Labour will not be voted back in for a millennium.
