People are being urged to get down to the pop-up vaccination sites in Blackburn before the last one closes at Saturday lunchtime.
Blackburn with Darwen CCG say there are no more pop-up sites planned for next week, so are advising people to attend today or tomorrow for their first dose of the Pfizer vaccine.
A spokesperson for the CCG said: "There are hundreds of vaccines available today at Revidge Fold Church, Shear Brow until 9pm and tomorrow until 1pm.
"If you are aged 18 and over, subject to eligibility, visit the pop up while it’s here.
"Walk-ins are available but beat the queue by booking here healthierlsc.co.uk/getmyjab
"Show them your booking reference when you arrive and you can go straight in."
It is believed there are around 800 jabs left at Revidge Fold Church, which need to be used by tomorrow.
The pop up clinics are moving to other areas in Pennine from the weekend where cases of the Indian variant are also rising.
The spokesperson added: "The response to the two week focus on increasing vaccinations has been amazing, we just need one final push to use up the last ones as they can’t be moved to the new sites and we don’t want any wastage."
UPDATE: The last pop up site in Blackburn closes tomorrow morning. There are hundreds of vaccines available today at Revidge Fold Church, Shear Brow until 9pm and tomorrow til 1pm before it closes. For aged 18 and over, subject to eligibility. @blackburndarwen @lancstelegraph
