Get your flu vaccination today!
Apr 27, 2023
We have regular flu clinics available for appointments - please note, these are short five-minute appointments for receiving the flu vaccination only. If you need to address any other health needs/concerns you will require a full nurse or GP consult.
You can book your flu vaccine via Manage My Health, (please note: this states the cost is free, but this is only if you meet the eligibility criteria), phoning reception, or if you already have a doctors appointment they may be able to do this for you at the time.
This year, children aged 6 months to 12 years old are eligible for a funded vaccine. Children aged 6 months to 9 years old that have not had a flu vaccine before should receive two doses (free).
