Helston Medical Centre praises "unseen heroes" in vaccination programme

Helston Medical Centre, Trelawney Road has praised the "unseen heroes" helping with the running of the vaccination program.

The surgery issued a massive thank you to those that have stepped in at such short notice.

The vaccinations started last week at the surgery with a marquee being set up, signage and an alternative entrance being made to Helston Medical Centre.

Praising the unsung heroes this morning, Helston Medical Centre wrote:

"As we begin our second day of vaccinating this week it seems like a good time to mention the behind the scenes work and say a massive thank you to those that have helped.

"Aussie Marquees, who not only supplied and constructed our additional space at short notice but have organised heat and light too.

"Eden Services who have taken down fences, erected new ones, made pathways where there was grass and gravelled areas to reduce the risk of slips.

"RH Signs for the fab signage but also for dropping everything to do even more at short notice when needed.

"Pro Mobility Helston for the loan of wheelchairs to help our less able patients have the safest visit possible.

"Finally, the Helston Lizard Rotary club (in particular James and Christine) for organising the rotas for the marshalling and helping put out signage most days."
