Friends Roger Morris and Raj Patel teamed up to open the centre after the success of their first centre at Roger’s Crewe Honda Centre on West Street, Crewe.
Roger and Raj, who runs neighbouring Hollowood Pharmacy, gave up their venues and time for free to help the vaccination centres set up and run.
Dr Mullan said: “It is absolutely amazing to see the work of all involved of this second vaccination centre set up by Raj and Janil Patel.
“And furthermore I would like to personally thank all the directors of the South Cheshire Masonic Hall Ltd. for kindly donating the hall.
“It really was brilliant to see and hear about the amount of people coming through the doors over the past two months.
“And it has proved to be such an integral part of being able to contribute towards the governments roadmap out of lockdown by helping to protect everyone.”
Raj said: “It has been a great success, which I am absolutely delighted to be part of and make it happen once again in Willaston.
“The Acacia Suite is a fantastic venue for all occasions and we are all delighted that it is being used for such an important role in getting life back to normality.
“I would like to thank Roger for giving his own time to volunteer to set up and take down the centre as and when required.”
