Health chiefs say they are exploring options to open more Covid-19 vaccination centres in a district where some residents face a 28-mile round trip for a jab.
At present there is only one centre for coronavirus vaccines for the public in the whole Dover district - which also covers Sandwich,Deal and Walmer - at Dover Health Centre in Maison Dieu Road.
