The morning started off a little grey and wet, with much checking of weather apps and hope that the one that said it would stop was right!

We all dutifully queued for the swap and got our negative tests before being put into all the usual roles.

A rotation on the outdoor areas and plenty of good wet weather gear along with a good supply of hot drinks meant no-one got too cold.

Today's bonus was a free delivery from Dominoes to say thank you to the health care workers... And the volunteers!

The other bonus was that the app that said the sun would come out was correct and by late morning the sky was bluer!

Another cohort of older people and healthcare workers came through the door and across the car park to safely get their jabs and the list of first doses received has got longer. Mission accomplished!
