Quote 9 | “Superb idea, just brings it closer to the people who maybe don’t live as close to some of the main vaccine centres as others, or perhaps don’t have the transport to get there” | Community worker, male |
Quote 10 | “I was surprised at how many people came just because they’d been to Sainsbury’s to do their shopping” | Health professional, female |

Quote 12 | “And I suppose if people are on the fence about it, it might push them over into choosing to come for it, yeah” | Service user, male |
Quote 13 | “I vaccinated an elderly lady and her daughter on the bench next to the bus. We went to people’s car if their loved one couldn’t get out the car” | Health professional, female |
Quote 14 | “The Sainsbury’s one wasn’t even that busy. I felt like maybe, they refused people a lot more. Whereas with the other one, they were quite welcoming and wanting people to come. I think they were a little bit more encouraging. Whereas that, it was like a military fort and how dare you?” (Laughter) | Service user, female |

Quote 17 | “You know, normally we’re telling people, “Don’t smoke, don’t drink, don’t have a doughnut,” you know, kind of thing, and so here we were with something actually people wanted to hear and wanted to see, and so just to be involved in that was really, really special” | Strategic group, male |
