1. A medicament delivery device comprising:
a needle for injecting medicament, the needle disposed at a distal end of the medicament delivery device;
a body for containing a syringe;
a needle cover axially movable relative to the body between an extended position, in which a distal end of the needle cover is distal to a distal end of the needle, and a retracted position for dispensing a medicament from the medicament delivery device, wherein the distal end of the needle is distal to the distal end of the needle cover when the needle cover is in the retracted position; and
an actuation member arranged at an outer circumferential surface of the body, the actuation member being configured to be movable by a user from an initial position to an engaged position by causing the actuation member to move radially into the body,
wherein, when the actuation member is in the initial position, the needle cover is axially movable between the retracted position and the extended position, and when the actuation member is in the engaged position, the actuation member engages with the needle cover to hold the needle cover in the retracted position.
