Mobile vaccination service expands
The mobile community vaccination service is an alternative for anyone who is not able to get to one of the main vaccination centers at the Brighton Centre, the Racecourse and County Oak. The quieter, more personal service is great for people who don't feel ready to go out to busy places after the long lockdown, or who prefer to visit a local service.
Where and when
The vaccination ambulance will visit its regular locations:
- Friday 14 and Saturday 15 May from 10.30am to 2.30pm - St Peter’s Church car park, York Place, Brighton, BN1 4GU
- Sunday 16 May from 10.30am to 2.30pm - Brunswick Square (pavement between Western Road and the square), Brighton BN3 1EJ
The new vaccination bus will start:
- Thursday 13 May from 11am to 4pm - Meridian Centre, Peacehaven
Some drop-in appointments are available on the day, but to be sure of an appointment it is best to book ahead.
Who can book
Everyone over 40 years old who:
- cannot get to one of the main vaccination centers
-
has a serious long term health issue
-
is an unpaid carer
How to book
Call 0300 303 8060
When you go to your appointment take one form of ID and your NHS number if you know it (but you can still get your vaccine if you don’t). Also, remember to wear something loose that gives easy access to your upper arm.
If you’ve already booked to have your vaccination somewhere else but would prefer to come to the mobile service, please cancel your other appointment so that someone else can have your slot.
You can also book to get vaccinated at the Brighton Centre or Brighton Racecourse seven days a week online here or by calling 119.
Free transport to your vaccination appointment is also available if you need it. Full details of all the options available are explained on our vaccinations page.
