Calling parents - ask your back to school and COVID-19 vaccine questions! (Session One)
About this event
Parents and carers of school-aged children and young people are invited to a virtual Q and A to ask their questions about the impact of COVID-19 on schools this September, along with any questions about the vaccine rollout for 16-17 year-olds or for children who are 12-15 years old with disabilities or complex health needs.
Answering questions will be leading experts in the borough, including:
- Dr Patrick Gibson, GP Lead for Richmond upon Thames on the NHS South West London CCG.
- Ian Dodds, Director of Childrens Services at Richmond Council.
- Representative from Public Health at Richmond Council.
At the events, the panel will be talking about the new guidance for schools in the Autumn term and the planned rollout of the vaccine for 16-17 year olds or for children who are 12-15 years old with disabilities or complex health needs. Attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions to the panel.
The event will be hosted on Zoom. Once registered you will be sent a personal link (around 24 hours in advance and again around 20 minutes before) and will be able to log in and hear and take part in the conversation. Attendees will be invited to have their say via video, audio or text chat.
