We have started vaccinating residents in Hounslow against COVID-19. To vaccinate residents quickly we need volunteers to support our vaccination hubs. There are currently opportunities available in Chiswick, Hounslow, Isleworth and Feltham.

- Requesting citizens to utilise hand sanitiser provided on entrance to the Pods.

- Follow all instructions and raise any issues promptly.
