Darlington walk-in clinic to return in bid to boost uptake

4th August 2021

Pop-up and walk-in clinics are being offered to Darlington residents to boost Covid-19 vaccine uptake across the town.

Daily walk-in clinics were available last week and are set to make a return on Saturday 7 and Sunday, August 8, from 10am-5pm for Darlington Pride. Walk-in clinics are on at the Darlington Arena every Monday, Wednesday and Saturday until August 30.

Penny Spring, the Director of Public Health for Darlington Borough Council, said: “It’s fantastic to see the variety of pop-up and walk-in clinics now on offer in Darlington.

“As the entire region has been moved to Enhanced Response Area (ERA) status due to high Covid transmission rates, it is more important than ever to encourage as many eligible residents as possible to get both doses of a Covid vaccine, which will help to reduce transmission across the borough.

“No appointments are needed and anyone over the age of 18 can attend – so even if you have previously turned down your invite from the NHS to get your jab, you can turn up at a clinic to have your first dose.”

The Darlington Pride pop-up clinic, provided by the NHS Northumberland CCG, will be in the town offering both first and second doses of Pfizer as well as Oxford/AstraZeneca.

Attendees are recommended to get their vaccinations ahead of consuming alcohol as the NHS team will not be able to offer jabs to those who attend the clinics already intoxicated.

No appointments are needed, but it must have been at least eight weeks since your first dose to get your second at any of the clinics.

Additional walk-in clinics and pop-ups in Darlington will be advertised on the Council’s social media channels, as well as by the NHS Tees Valley team.

Appointments are still available to book at the Darlington Arena, Cockerton Pharmacy and Firthmoor Community Centre vaccination sites in Darlington by phoning 119 or visiting the NHS national online booking system.
