Jessy and I spent 3 hours this afternoon directing traffic, organising the car park, and pointing people in the right direction to get their 1st Coronavirus vaccine. The vaccine roll out today was at The Leys Health Centre in Blackbird Leys, and was for invited over 80 year olds and healthcare workers. There was a steady stream of people arriving all afternoon. It was clear many weren’t familiar with the area and many had mobility issues. 3 hours on car park duty might sound dull, but everyone seemed very grateful to be there, and even when the queues built up people were generally good humoured.

So good to see so many people on their way towards a little more freedom.
