Vaccinations for flu and Covid will start on 3 October. The start of the vaccination season has been pushed back at the recommendation of the Joint commitee on Vaccination and immunication and will begin in October rather than the usual start of September.
We will be offering co-administartion with the Covid vaccine to anyone attending the Practice for the flu jab. Patients wanting the Covid vaccination only should ring 119 to arrange a vaccination with a local Covid Clinic.
The eligibility can change each year but typically the vaccine is available to all aged over 65 years and those with a chronic disease or BMI over 40. All eligible patients are contacted by the Practice.
Many of the local pharmacies are also able to provide you with a free flu vaccine if you are eligible to receive on on the NHS
