19/01/21 Vaccination for HWO Service Users 

Urgent – COVID – 19 

It is our concern that there will be individuals that use our services, who may fail to be recognised by the system or gain access to vaccination in a timely way. If you are a current Headway Oxfordshire service user and you have NOT been formally contacted by your GP or other government official, with a formal offer of vaccination OR formal recognition that you are recognised as being “clinically vulnerable” (as per the governments advice on priority groups) we would like to offer you our help to remedy this potential oversight. 

We are collating a list of our service users (who have given their consent) and their contact details, to share with the relevant local authorities, in preparation for inclusion in the formal roll out of the vaccination of this “clinically vulnerable” group. If you would like to be added to this list, please email or call us directly as soon as possible through the usual HWO contact details on this website.  

We will update this notice as formal plans develop. In the meantime, if you DO receive either a vaccination OR appointment for a vaccination, we would greatly appreciate you informing us so that we do not needlessly duplicate work or precious resources.
