COVID-19 vaccination programme

We worked with partners across the health and care system, local communities and third sector to rapidly roll-out COVID-19 vaccinations. 

“This has truly been a team effort. We really couldn’t have delivered such an ambitious programme over such a short timescale without the support and dedication of our local GP practices, community services, hospitals, care homes and pharmacy colleagues.” Steve Brennan, Senior Responsible Officer, Kirklees Vaccination Programme

“I’m happy to take the vaccine. I don’t want the virus. I tell all my friends and family to get the vaccine too.” Elkanah Lawrence, Huddersfield

“The staff at John Smith’s vaccination centre have been very helpful. I’d encourage everyone to get their jabs so we can move forward. I didn’t feel it at all.” Lucy McWhire

“Our residents felt very safe and comfortable, and are hoping this means they can hug their loved ones soon. This is a great step forward in the fight against COVID-19.” Jessica Hibbins, Manager, Aden Lodge Care Home, Kirklees
