Additional stock has been made available for a local NHS vaccination centre.

The vaccination centre in Great Yarmouth's Market Gates will continue to be by appointment only, except for individuals who are 'hard to reach,' such as unpaid carers and homeless people.

In addition to this, the Louise Hamilton Centre based at James Paget University Hospital in Gorleston will be running additional vaccination clinics from Tuesday to Friday next week.
