***UPDATE***
Have you missed your COVID vaccination?
If you are eligible for a COVID-19 vaccination, and have not yet received it, our Community Vaccination Centres (CVCs) will be open to drop ins from Monday 4 December between 9.10 and 4.45 each day - Monday to Friday.
Our CVCs are located at Dewi Sant Health Park, Ysbyty George Thomas, Keir Hardie, Glanrhyd, YCC and Maesteg Hospital. Please note that Maesteg Hospital will be open to walk ins on a Monday only.
If you have received an appointment letter for a COVID vaccination, and you are unable to attend, please rebook either by using the rebooking form: COVID-19 Vaccine Information - Cwm Taf Morgannwg University Health Board (nhs.wales)
Or by calling our rebooking line on 01685 726464.
Walk ins are already up and running at our CVCs for all health and social care workers, who will also be offered the flu vaccination.
If you are not a health or social care worker and are eligible for the flu vaccine you can make an appointment at your GP or local pharmacy.
