Local Vicar gets the needle

Rev'd Julie Gawthrope, Rector of St Mary's church Braughing receives her first vaccination.

Rev Julie gets the needle

"I was really grateful to the NHS for making it possible for me to receive the COVID jab at their vaccination centre in Bishop's Stortford.  It's amazing to have received protection from COVID that is safe, effective and which helps protect others too.   None other than our own Peter Boylan gave me the injection (which I have to say didn't hurt at all!).  If you've not yet been vaccinated, I hope that you'll take that opportunity when it comes, just as I did!"
