COVID-19 Spalding vaccinations to start next week
| Updated: 17:35, 08 January 2021
Spalding will have a COVID-19 vaccination centre up and running next week and Springfields Events Centre will be the venue for the facility.
There is also hope that a roving centre could then make its way to the Holbeach/Suttons area, after Prime Minister Boris Johnson said no-one should have to travel more than 10 miles to get vaccinated.
Although health officials are still keeping tight-lipped about the plans, extremely reliable sources have told Spalding Today that by this time next week the facility will be up and running.

NHS workers who are continuing to care for South Holland residents will be receiving treats to brighten their days after a group decided they wanted to help.
Donna Dicks, who lives in Sutton Bridge, has joined forces with Yvonne Porter-Smith of The Fabric Fae in Holbeach and fellow sewer Debby Palmer to put together treat bags for NHS workers after creating protective garments during the first national lockdown.
The group has been collecting items and hand creating bags which will be delivered to NHS staff at hospitals which serve our area.
