NOTTINGHAMSHIRE’S BIG WEEKEND
Walk-in Covid-19 jabs for all adults will be available from Friday 25 – Monday 28 June in Nottingham and Nottinghamshire as part of Nottinghamshire’s Big Weekend for vaccinations, where all eligible adults can come and grab a first or second jab from 8am-8pm.
All those eligible for their Covid-19 vaccine will be able to receive a vaccine at nine sites across the county including Gamston Community Hall, Forest Recreation Ground, King’s Meadow Campus, Richard Herrod Centre, Newark Showground, Ashfield Health Village, Mansfield Wickes site, King’s Mill Hospital Vaccination Hub and Queen’s Medical Centre.
Those currently eligible include any adult member of the public as well as those who are clinically vulnerable, clinically extremely vulnerable and carers.
All sites will be offering both Pfizer and AstraZeneca vaccines to the public. If you are unsure or have any concerns, trained staff will be available at the vaccination sites to help put you at ease and answer your questions.
All sites will be open from 8am to 8pm from Friday to Monday offering walk-in appointments to anyone eligible for their first or second dose. Second doses will be available for anybody who had their first dose on or before 30 April.
Amanda Sullivan, Accountable Officer for NHS Nottingham and Nottinghamshire CCG, said: “Our Grab a Jab weekend was really successful and saw many people coming forward to get their vaccine, so we are taking part in the national Big Weekend which starts on Friday to encourage even more people to get their jab.
“We are encouraging anyone who has not yet had their first dose or those who had their second dose on or before 30 April to come and have their vaccine. The process will be really quick and easy and there will be no need to book an appointment at any of the nine sites that are open over the Big Weekend. I would urge the public to visit the sites early to receive a vaccine to help protect themselves, their families and their loved ones.
“We know the rate of infection is increasing nationally and we are seeing increases in Nottingham and Nottinghamshire. We have seen in the past that a few cases can very quickly lead to a big increase in community transmission. That is why it is important that we all get our vaccine and protect ourselves as soon as possible.”

As you are all aware, the impact of the Coronavirus is escalating.
The Parish Council is concerned that there may be some members of our community who may have ‘fallen through the net’. They may not be known to the authorities, they may not have a support network of family or friends, they may not have internet access.
If you are aware that a neighbour is struggling to cope please be a good neighbour and check if they need any help.
Thank you

A running group is now offering free beginners’ sessions at locations throughout Rushcliffe, thanks to support from the Borough Council’s Healthy Futures Fund.
Notts Women Runners operate courses across Nottinghamshire and are offering the exercise opportunities in Ruddington and West Bridgford for new recruits hoping to increase their fitness levels.
The group successfully applied for the funding to send volunteers on a Leadership in Running Fitness course by England Athletics which helps Run Leaders to gain experience of how to motivate others to reach their goals.
Newly qualified leaders are now supporting run sessions for beginners across the Borough, based on the Couch to 5k programme, some of which are already fully booked.
The group’s bid highlighted the need to reach residents who may not typically have engaged in physical activity over the winter months.
The running group provide 10 to 12 week programmes for women and offer a safe, welcoming environment to increase exercise levels.
The fund is designed to help groups or activities sustain themselves financially, expand their efforts and positively impact the health and wellbeing of residents in Rushcliffe.
If your group or activity wishes to apply for support from the Healthy Futures Fund, please visit https://www.rushcliffe.gov.uk/health/healthyfuturesfund/
Rushcliffe Borough Council’s Deputy Leader Cllr Debbie Mason said: “This is yet another wonderful example of the Healthy Futures Fund supporting local groups to provide further opportunities for people in the Borough, following our work to support the Rushcliffe All Ears group last year.
“We are so pleased to be able to assist Notts Women Runners in branching out and providing more beginners’ sessions for those hoping to become active in our towns and villages.
“The new sessions have been exceptionally popular, and we hope more women will now find a local running group to help them improve their fitness, socialise and regularly engage with their community.”
Previously, the fund has assisted community groups in buying new equipment, hiring venues for meetings and refreshing marketing materials to help reach new members.
Run Leader Co-ordinator for Notts Women Runners Eve Savage said: “We’re thrilled to be able to offer more beginners’ running sessions, thanks to funding from the Healthy Futures Fund, it’s transformed the number of sessions we can deliver.
“They promote a friendly, supportive community for runners and it’s brilliant to be able to welcome more people to our new groups across Rushcliffe.”
