We’ve teamed up with Wolverhampton City Council to help encourage the local community to get their COVID vaccination, if they haven’t done so already.
As a result of a lower take up of the covid vaccination across Wolverhampton, we’ve teamed up with the City Council to educate and raise awareness of the importance of the vaccination amongst the local community.
“Working with the Council to help dispel the myths around the vaccine amongst the local community is really important to us. We have a duty of care to provide as much information and knowledge as possible to the local community and make sure everyone is aware of the importance of taking the COVID-19 vaccine.”
Facts about the COVID 19 vaccination
- The vaccine is safe, effective and approved.
- The vaccine is free.

About the Covid Vaccination programme
The Covid Vaccination programme is led by the NHS, commissioned by NHS England and overseen locally by Black Country & West Birmingham CCG and local Primary Care Networks. The local authority’s role is to support the NHS to deliver the programme and ensure an equitable offer is available to those across the city. You can find more information regarding this from the Black Country & West Birmingham CCG.
