Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what steps he is taking to support community pharmacies in Leicestershire with the roll-out of covid-19 vaccinations.

Community pharmacies providing the COVID-19 vaccination, regardless of their location in England, will be eligible for support in the form of training, funding for the service including fee per vaccination, additional venue hire costs and pre-agreed one off set up costs and non-monetary support - for example, access to vaccines, consumables, personal protective equipment and other equipment to operate the site.
