Potters Bar residents are currently directed to Borehamwood for their vaccines, which is less than 10 miles away and has been selected as the GP-led vaccination centre for the whole of Hertsmere.
Allum Hall was chosen because it could safely accommodate patients while maintaining social distancing, vaccine storage and easy access, according to Herts Valleys Clinical Commissioning Group.
GPs across Hertsmere are involved in providing this service and when patients are contacted by their GP practice to book a vaccination their appointments for the first and second dose will be at the Allum Hall site.
