Local COVID-19 vaccination programme
Last updated: 17 August 2021 at 3pm
The NHS in Hampshire and Isle of Wight is now vaccinating all patients over the age of 18. In Basingstoke, the fire station and Jameson House, Lutyens Close, are operating as vaccination centres. In addition, a number of locations across Hampshire are open for walk-in appointments.
Following an announcement by the government, 16 and 17-year-olds are now eligible for the COVID-19 vaccine and can attend a walk-in clinic without an appointment.
You will be invited in one of three ways to have a vaccination:
Using a local GP service: GP services are working together in your area to vaccinate as many people as possible. You may be contacted by a different surgery to the one you usually go to.
Local hospital services: You might be contacted to have the vaccination as an inpatient or outpatient.
At a vaccination centre: If you live within 30 to 45 minutes of a vaccination centre, and haven't already been vaccinated, you may have received a letter asking you to book an appointment online on the NHS website. If you can't access the NHS website, you can call 119 free. If you would prefer to be vaccinated by your local GP practice or vaccination centre, as explained in the letter, you can wait to be contacted by your GP or try the website again later as sites are being added as they become available.
As some residents fall within the West Hampshire Clinical Commissioning Group area, please note you may be offered a vaccination in a location outside of Basingstoke. Find out more on the North Hampshire Clinical Commissioning Group website and the West Hampshire Clinical Commissioning Group website.
