The Litania is provided and driven by staff from the Canal Ministries organisation Nearly 300 people from the Bath and North East Somerset, Swindon and Wiltshire boating community have been given their Covid jabs thanks to a floating vaccine centre. The unique project enables live-aboard boaters – who often face healthcare barriers – to get a Covid-19 vaccine and a drop-in clinic space. Fanny Gorman, a live-aboard boater, said; “As a key worker, I can’t say how much I appreciated the vaccine boat as I’ve had to work throughout the pandemic. “I know boaters can have real issues registering with a GP and, personally, if I get a letter from mine, it’s normally delayed getting to me because I have to use the GP surgery address.
