A MEDICAL centre is assessing the possibility of getting volunteers to help on Covid-19 vaccination days.

Constable Medical Centre, in East Bergholt, is awaiting for health bosses to assess the facility as a coronavirus vaccination hub.

As part of the preparation, the surgery is trying to establish if volunteers can help patients with their parking, and show them directions into the surgery, on vaccination days.

The centre is assessing for potential volunteer numbers daily from Wednesday, January 13 to Sunday, January 17 from 8.30am to 3.30pm.

A Patient Participant Group member will contact those who got in touch with the surgery about volunteering to answer questions about the role.

A statement from the surgery said: "The surgery website now has a 'Covid-19 and flu vaccination' section where regular updates and information will be posted.

"We do not have any further information about site approval or the vaccination start dates at this stage.

"We understand that many of you would like to know more and we will aim to put regularly timely information on our website or Facebook page."

If would like to help in any way, email ccmpmarshalls@gmail.com with your name and phone number.
