I have booked a flu jab for next week with my GP surgery, but they don't do Covid jabs, and I'd rather get them both done at once.

Are there any reasonably local pharmacies who do this, and if so is it walk in or would I need to make an appointment?

Thanks!

Obviously I would cancel the one with my GP!

If you're not comfortable with lots of people in a small space, I'd recommend avoiding peak times though 😎

FYI I went to Sogim yesterday, there were four of us waiting plus customers coming and going and it's a pretty small space, standing room only.

There are also two pharmacies in Nunhead giving vaccinations. 

[You'll need to put in a valid neighbouring (eg SE15 3HB) full postcode to get to their entries.]

ETA: not so actually. Don't know how that happened -- they are included when I enter my SE22 postcode.  Incidentally, Kristal do walk-ins too.  I was in and out with a flu jab in five minutes this morning, after having phoned (15 min. :-)) to check, as the online system doesn't do same-day bookings.)

Thanks so much everyone for all this info, it was very easy for me to get an appointment for both jabs.

I chose Kristal in Nunhead because although it's less convenient, they were great when I went there before.

I'm not keen on Sogim for reasons unrelated to the above (I've had very poor service there in the past).

I don’t live in ED but strangely have had 2 text messages from Kristals advising me to book my flu and Covid jabs which are available online and to have at the same time. This was in September. I’ve never had a flu jab but had 4 Covid jabs when advised to have them and I wanted them anyway but  never had them at Kristal’s but at various places that were offering me them at the time when needed. Last one I had to travel to a Covid jab site in Kennington!

Agreed on Sogim - no attempt made to physically space customers. Avoid 

Four Ways near to HH station has space inside and outside, with chairs. 

 But why do places offering jabs need to physically space customers?  Just be grateful that you can receive a potentially life saving treatment. 

Just had my flu and Covid jabs at Kristals.

I was early, but didn't have to wait long, and there is a reasonably big waiting area which only had one or two people in it.

The jabs themselves were quick and easy, and the staff friendly and helpful, so all good 

I realised when I got there that it wasn't actually Kristals I  went to last time. It must have been the smaller pharmacy on that stretch, but they didn't have a notice in their window saying they were doing the jabs 

What a strange place Kristals is, though! I could have picked up some hardware stuff while I was there!

    • Meanwhile, I'm withdrawing my previous high appreciation.  Firstly there were my attempts three days ago to provide the detailed information they needed,  to enable the technical team to check a specific post in their log  and see the server responses.  I found myself as if going round in circles.   The bot eventually told me that it was Support I should be sending it to, rather than 'here in chat'.  I'd been following the links to the numbered Ticket throughout and had not even been aware I was in a different part of the building.   It was beginning to feel as if I was being gaslighted so I just gave up, and went off to educate myself on the latest requirements the biggies such as Gmail require in ther DNS security information.  I've long had an SPF record, and it's now clear that I should be ready to install at least a DMARC, and preferably a DKIM one too, in my domain's DNS record.  I'd not noticed any recent problem before the migration, so had assumed (but haven't yet checked) that Plusnet have been inserting their own secure identity confirmation items, for known subscribers like me who use their mail relay to send email as from their personal domain.   Anyway, I've just  had another try at giving the bot the required information, and that seems to have succeeded, so I'll see wait to see what the Greenby techs say about it all. On top of that, yesterday evening I was searching for a really important email which I had to reply to,  which I'd purposely put in a separate Plusnet webmail folder.  I found that all my added folders there were empty, just as in Vladi's reports, which I'm immensely glad  of.  Knowledge of his experience and a fairly quick and successful resort  to his strategy worked for me too and helped ratchet down my alarm, which was present even despite the knowledge that somewhere I should be able to find another copy of the file. It could have been otherwise.  A system fault like that, unreported and left uncorrected, could potentially contribute to doing people real harm.  I remember two years ago, a single instant of deep fear, on hearing something on the radio about the dire legal effect that could result from an inaction similar to one of my own, that was immediately followed by a slight oddity in my hearing in one ear.  I connected the two and measured my BP for a period shortly after.  That more or less confirmed that there'd been a marked jag in my BP, occasioned by the moment of fear, that gradually declined.   Two or three days later I woke up with a severe  hearing loss in that ear.  That led to a referral to an ENT consultant, but by the time that arrived the loss had thankfully been more or less reversed.
