The vaccination site will continue in Barnstaple, but the running of the site will be taken on by Northern Devon Healthcare Trust and bookings can be made through the National Booking Service – not the GP practice. More information can be found here
Those who are eligible for vaccination can use the National Booking Service via the website or call 119. Appointment slots will be added regularly, so please keep checking back.

- You feel you cannot cope with your symptoms at home
- your condition gets worse
- your symptoms do not get better after 7 days
