Jackie is one of our fantastic volunteers, who was pleased to receive her first Covid-19 vaccination recently. Here is what she told us: 

Delighted to have just received my COVID vaccination at The Warwickshire Golf Club and Conference Centre, Leek Wootton.

Everything is extremely well organised and people also have a choice of remaining in their car and having a ‘drive-through’ vaccination. It is such an efficient system and people are very well looked after.

I would like to thank all the staff and volunteers who are working so hard to enable us to have our vaccinations.

Darzi review of the NHS

In July 2024, the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care commissioned Lord Darzi to conduct an immediate and independent investigation of the NHS. The review was published on Thursday 12 September.

Lord Darzi wrote a letter to the Secretary of Sate to accompany his review. The letter includes a summary of Lord Darzi's 28 findings and reported "Nothing that I have found draws into question the principles of a health service that is taxpayer funded, free at the point of use, and based on need not ability to pay".
