They include hospital hubs, local vaccination services and vaccination centres. This flexibility ensures an accessible model for all. Local Vaccination Services for example are well placed to support the specific needs of our highest risk patients in the community and can tailor support to an individual’s needs.</p><p> </p><p>This links closely with a key element set out in the COVID-19 Vaccination Uptake plan - to build trust. To help build trust NHS England and NHS Improvement and Public Health England have been working with Rethink Mental Illness to understand barriers, and common causes of concern faced by people living with severe mental illnesses. They are using these insights to develop and promote targeted communications materials to help respond to and reassure these communities. Top tips for vaccinators have also been developed to support people living with learning disabilities and autism to access COVID-19 vaccinations when it is their turn.</p> answering member constituency Stratford-on-Avon answering member printed Nadhim Zahawi question first answered 07/04/2021 09:23:15 answering member 4113 label Biography information for Nadhim Zahawi previous answer version 77024 answering member constituency Stratford-on-Avon answering member printed Nadhim Zahawi answering member 4113 label Biography information for Nadhim Zahawi

question text	To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, for what reason the iProov-Mvine vaccine passport, which was developed with Innovate UK funding, is undertaking a trial.
tabling member constituency	Wycombe
tabling member printed	Mr Steve Baker
uin	140797
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 13/04/2021 answer text <p>At the time of the COVID-19 Fast Start competition, launched in April 2020, the path the pandemic would follow was unclear and the Government supported every project which could aid the response, including ‘vaccine passports’. Two British companies, Mvine and iProov, were funded by Innovate UK to develop a working prototype of a vaccine passport.</p><p>The Government will review whether COVID-19 status certification could play a role in reopening the economy, reducing restrictions on social contact and improving safety. This will include assessing to what extent certification would be effective in reducing risk, and the potential uses to enable access to settings or a relaxation of COVID-19 secure mitigations. The Government will also consider the ethical, equalities, privacy, legal and operational aspects of this approach and what limits, if any, should be placed on organisations using certification. It will draw on external advice to develop recommendations that take into account any social and economic impacts and implications for disproportionately impacted groups and individuals’ privacy and security.</p> answering member constituency Stratford-on-Avon answering member printed Nadhim Zahawi question first answered 13/04/2021 15:20:54 answering member 4113 label Biography information for Nadhim Zahawi previous answer version 77015 answering member constituency Stratford-on-Avon answering member printed Nadhim Zahawi answering member 4113 label Biography information for Nadhim Zahawi
