Covid Vaccination Days at
St Columba’s Church
Having posted that we will run our last 2 clinics for this year on Saturday 3rd and 10th December, there has been such a low uptake of appointments that we can’t justify running a full day’s clinic this Saturday, 3rd December so we will only be offering a morning’s clinic, and then reviewing demand for the Saturday 10th December.
For any help or any advice on this, feel free to contact Steve Ellis at the church.
Tele: 0114 2670 006 (answerphone 24/7).
