Edgbaston Stadium has announced that its Exhibition Hall will be transformed into an NHS Covid-19 vaccination centre from 15 March.
The vaccination centre at Edgbaston will be operated wholly by the NHS with the treatments administered to those who have been contacted directly and have subsequently booked an appointment.
Stuart Cain, chief executive of Edgbaston Stadium, said: “We’re very proud of the community response that Edgbaston and our staff have made since the outbreak of Covid-19 and we are delighted that we can continue to play a major role in this by accommodating one of the region’s main vaccination centres.
“As a venue and business operating within the West Midlands, we’re committed to playing our part and to supporting the national vaccination programme and helping the country fight back against Covid-19.
“Given the success of the vaccination programme to date, we’re excited at the prospect of welcoming back crowds to Edgbaston in the coming weeks. To protect the health and safety of everyone, we recommend that everyone who is offered a vaccination that they take it at the first possible opportunity.”
