Community Vaccination Leaders Programme
The vaccination programme – the biggest in NHS history – is progressing very well with over 34m people having received their first dose and over 14m both doses meaning a total of over 48m vaccinations have been given so far.
Getting vaccinated against COVID-19 is the most effective way of protecting people against this deadly and devastating virus. Our ambitions are set high and we want all communities to have a maximum uptake in people getting their vaccine. COVID-19 has adversely impacted on our marginalised and vulnerable communities. Ensuring uptake of vaccinations amongst all our richly diverse community is a way of bucking this trend.
We can’t do this alone.
We recognise the power you have to work to improve health outcomes.
