HUNDREDS more Covid booster appointments are being made available in Malvern this weekend.

SW Healthcare, which runs the vaccination site at the Three Counties Showground, is trying to get as many people vaccinated as they can in the lead-up to Christmas.

This is in addition to the usual walk-ins for the first and second jab, as well as the boosters.

To book your appointment, go to www.nhs.uk/conditions/coronavirus-covid-19/coronavirus-vaccination/book-coronavirus-vaccination/

A spokesman said: "We've just added a huge number of new pre-bookable booster and first dose appointments at the Three Counties Showground in Malvern.

"You can check our capacity and find out other walk-in sessions as they're announced at http://swhealthcare.org.uk/walk-ins"

To be eligible for the Covid booster jab you must have had your second vaccination at least six months ago, be 40 and over, live and work in a care home, be a front-line health and social care worker.

Also eligible are people 16 and over who have a medical condition that puts them at greater risk, care for or live with someone who is high risk.

People who are pregnant and in one of these groups are also eligible.
