Bridport Medical Centre begins texting patients to book their Covid vaccine

Bridport Medical Centre is starting to send out text messages to invite people to have the coronavirus vaccine.

The messages - sent to those who are in the eligible cohorts with a recorded mobile phone number - invite patients to book their own appointments.

To update the surgery with your current mobile number or email address, send the details to [email protected]

If you receive an invite but your phone is not able to link through to the booking system, please call your surgery.
