Our Senior Operating Department Practioner Edward Walsh pictured with his vaccinator, staff nurse Vicki Tams, is the latest winner of an extra day's annual leave. And the second prize of £25 of High Street vouchers* goes to staff nurse Joanne Graham from HRI A&E.

With more than 57% of frontline colleagues vaccinated, and Medicine still slightly ahead in the divisonal league table, we have more events planned this month to aim to make sure as many people are protected before December. 

Colleagues who have their vaccination at CHFT, or use the self-declare/decline form, are eligible for our weekly prize draw. And next week our vaccination teams will be at the clinical audit half-day so we don't take people away from their busy day-to-day roles.

And don't forget our Immuniser of the Year competition. We've already had some cracking nominations in - so if you know an immuniser who has gone the extra mile please email flu.CHFT@cht.nhs.uk

Our intranet pages have details of our drop-ins, who our vaccinators are, how we're doing and the self-declare/decline form.

* apolgies to our gift voucher winners - we've had issues getting the vouchers. They'll be here very soon!
