How it works
We’ll ask you some questions and offer an appointment based on your previous vaccinations and the answers you give us.
You can book for someone else, such as your child or someone you care for, if you have their consent. You’ll need to enter their details when booking.
1st or 2nd doses
You can use this service to book a 1st or 2nd dose of the vaccine if you or your child are aged 5 years old or over.
When you can book a 2nd dose
You should be able to book a 2nd dose on the day after your 1st dose. If you or your child are:
- 18 years old or over – you’ll be offered 2nd dose appointments from 8 weeks (56 days) after your 1st dose
- under 18 years old – you’ll be offered 2nd dose appointments from 12 weeks (84 days) after your 1st dose.
How to get an earlier 2nd dose if you’re under 18 years old and at-risk
If you or your child are under 18 years old and at high risk from COVID-19, you’re eligible for a 2nd dose from 8 weeks after your 1st dose.
However, this service will only offer you appointments from 12 weeks after your 1st dose.
To get your 2nd dose from 8 weeks, please either:
- contact your GP surgery
- go to a walk-in site with a letter from a GP that says you’re eligible for a 2nd dose from 8 weeks after your 1st dose

You can use this service to book a spring booster if you or your child are either:
- aged 75 years old or over
