Residents at a Richmond care home have expressed optimism after receiving the first round of the Coronavirus vaccine.
Elderly occupants and staff at Barchester’s Lynde House, near Richmond Bridge, led the way against the fight against COVID-19 last week.
The vaccines were administered by Dr Flynn, from Hampton Wick Surgery, who visits residents at the care home regularly.
Resident John, 87, said: “I am so pleased to be given the vaccine. It will help to keep us safe".

Residents will receive a follow-up injection at a later date, likely between 3 and 12 weeks after the first.
