More chances to get a free health check and COVID-19 vaccine

The ‘Living Well’ bus service is returning to Sefton this month to offer residents a free health check and the opportunity to catch up on first and second COVID-19 vaccines, as well as third primary doses for those who are immunosuppressed.

Operating as a drop-in service, the bus offers a range of physical health checks, COVID-19 vaccinations, and referrals to talking therapies.

The bus will be at the following locations from 10:30am-4pm, with no appointment needed:

• Wednesday 19 April – The Park Hotel pub, Birkdale, Southport
• Wednesday 10 May – Maghull Lidl Car Park, North way, Maghull

The service, which is delivered by the Cheshire and Wirral Partnership NHS Foundation Trust, was launched in June 2022 to offer a consistent health and care approach across communities across Cheshire and Merseyside. All activity is recorded and shared with your GP, ensuring ongoing understanding and support for your health is in place.
