Can over 50s get a seasonal booster at a walk in vaccination centre now or not?

The NHS webpage isn't clear. Says "a seasonal booster (autumn booster) for some people, including those aged 50 years or over, those at higher risk or who are pregnant, and frontline health and social care workers", then says, "Currently certain people are being prioritised for getting a seasonal booster. Others, including those aged 50 to 64 who are not at higher risk, will be able to get it later in the autumn 2022."

Has anyone aged 50 to 74 gone to a walk in centre and been given the seasonal booster, or has anyone gone and been turned away?

I got a text asking to book last week and booked for next week. Over 50 but no added risk factor.

After the 15th of October as far as I know.

I'm mid 50s and come under healthcare and I can't book yet. Ther are walk ins requiring work I'd, but location in county, but getting there isn't easy. Work may come up with a doable option, have to wait and see.
