Westfield COVID Vaccination Centre

Welcome to the Westfield COVID Vaccination Centre which is located in the Westfield Shopping Centre in Stratford. It is one of hundreds of nationwide centres set up to deliver the public COVID vaccination programme.

It is open from 8.00am - 8.00pm seven days a week
You can book to have your COVID vaccine here when you have been contacted by the NHS or you can drop-in.
Attendance is by appointment or you can drop-in if in one of the eligible cohorts according to the Government's priority list here.

What will happen when I attend?

Arriving

For those with an appointment, we request that you do not come too early. Just come a minute or two before your appointment time. 

If you are opting for a Drop-in slot and are in one of the cohorts eligible for the COVID vaccine, join the queue outside the centre. Our Front of House staff will take your name and details.

  • Please bring you NHS number and evidence of which of the current cohorts you are in
  • We want everyone to be safe during their visit and not be in close contact with others so maintain a 2m space from others in the queue.
  • You cannot bring any family members into the centre with you unless you need a carer.
  • Others will be asked to wait outside.
  • We have a separate entrance and exit, and a one-way system to maintain distance

Checking in

When you arrive, you will be met by our front of house staff.

  • They will ensure that you are wearing a face covering and will provide you with a mask if you are not.
  • We will ask you to sanitise your hands in the foot-controlled dispenser by the entrance.
  • We will check your details and appointment information.
  • We will also take your temperature.

Vaccination

  • We will then take you to one of our vaccination pods.
  • The vaccinator will ask you some of the same questions you have been asked - just to be sure you are safe and well to have the vaccine
  • Talk with your vaccinator about which arm you would prefer to have the vaccination in.
  • If you are especially worried about having injections, tell your vaccinator so they can look after you carefully.
  • Our vaccinators are very gentle and skilled - you really won't feel much
  • The vaccinator will check that you feel ok.
  • You will be given a leaflet about the vaccination you have just had.
  • You are then free to go
