STOURBRIDGE National Spiritualist Church has been confirmed as a local hub for coronavirus vaccinations.

Dudley CCG bosses say the first jabs were administered last week at the church in Union Street which is the vaccination hub for the Stourbridge, Wollescsote and Lye Primary Care Network.

Vaccines for patients at Lion Health, the biggest GP surgery in the borough, are among those being offered at the church.

Bosses at Lion Health, which has around 30,000 patients on its books, said on Facebook today that the surgery had begun delivery of Covid-19 vaccinations and that they would be offered to those over 80 first.
