Flu Vaccines
Our Flu Vaccines start in October 2024.
This year the NHS will offer most eligible adults a flu vaccine from early October, which is slightly later than in past years. This is because the latest scientific evidence shows this is the best time for most adults to be vaccinated to give the most protection, closer to the winter months when flu circulates most.
- Pregnant women and eligible children will be invited slightly sooner, when our vaccines arrive and may have their vaccines in September.
- School-aged children will be offered the flu vaccination at school.
- The NHS will contact patients who are eligible for Covid-19 vaccinations. These will not be given at the practice.
We will contact patients who should have an NHS flu vaccine in late September to book an appointment. Please only contact us if you think you should have the flu vaccination, but have not been invited by October.
