Staff at the Dewars Vaccinatio­n Centre in Perth have spoken of their pride at being involved in the lifesaving operation.

The PA was invited along for a look inside the centre to find out how the vaccine rollout was progressin­g.

And the excitement within the facility was palpable as residents lined up for their first dose.

Karen Gunn, clinic lead for the Dewars Centre operation, said: “I will be honest, I have been in the NHS a long time - about 26 years - and this is probably going to be the most important thing I will ever do in my career.

“I carry that with me every day.”

Also involved in the rollout is podiatrist Lindsay Davidson.

She told the PA: “It’s incredibly rewarding and I’m really privileged to be part of this team. I feel the more vaccines we get into arms, the sooner life gets back to normal for our families, ourselves and the NHS services.” PAGE 4
