The fabulous Eddie and his team are @FriendshipCafe1 today in Gloucester providing covid vaccines. Relaxed, quiet, plenty of time to talk through any worries and I guarantee a warm welcome and plenty of laughter. #BestTeamEver
Here's Eddie, our vaccination lead at the Friendship Cafe, in Gloucester, today. He and the team have visited a number of different locations across the county in recent weeks and more sessions are planned, as he explains. @One_Glos @GlosCCG

It’s truly fabulous work and happening in lots of counties to ensure an equitable offer tailored to meet diverse needs. @CroftsMarie is a fabulous nursing director in Oxford and may be able to link you in to the vax programme in your area if you want to get involved.
This is amazing 🌟 Hope this could be much more widespread + would happily volunteer for something like this! Really hope this might help the currently scared/worried group of unvaccinated people 💛💛💛

Boosted today @ChurchdownSurg1 a faultless service. Having been involved in mass vax programme in my previous role @GlosHealthNHS i know just how much work goes on behind the scenes to make it look so easy! Huge praise to @One_Glos for stepping up once again to the challenge.🌟
Delighted to say that we are already at almost 80% booster take up for over 18s in Gloucestershire 👏 Stunning work from brilliant @One_Glos vaccination teams and volunteers, and well done to the great people of Gloucestershire for stepping up. Read more: covid19.glos.nhs.uk/gloucest…

The theme for this years World Suicide Prevention Day is Hope. Sometimes we all need someone in our lives to hold the hope for us when it feels to hard and keep it safe until we are ready and able to feel hopeful again. #HoldtheHope #WSPD
