Immunisation and vaccination

Being up to date with routine vaccinations helps prevent you, your family, and others from becoming unwell. More here: Why vaccination is important 

If you’re not sure about you or your child’s vaccine status your GP surgery may be able to advise. You may also be able to view your status via the NHS app

Covid-19 spring booster

The NHS will contact you if you are eligible for a seasonal spring Covid-19 booster vaccine from 15 April. If you are eligible because you are age 75 or over or you or your child are immunosuppressed, you can book online or by calling 119.

MMR vaccine

Measles cases are on the rise, so make sure you and your family are protected. The MMR vaccine helps prevent against Measles, Mumps and Rubella

Two doses of the MMR vaccine give excellent lifelong protection, so if you or your child have missed out contact your GP surgery to book. Your GP will offer your child one vaccine dose when they are a year old and another at 3 years, 4 months. Both doses are needed to be fully protected. 

Symptoms of measles include a runny nose, cough, high fever, sore red watery eyes and a blotchy red-brown rash.

School age vaccines

School age children are offered routine vaccines at school, but if they missed these for any reason or your child is home schooled, walk-in catch up vaccine clinics are running throughout the spring and summer. See dates and venues below

Shingles

The shingles vaccine is recommended for: 

  • anyone aged 50+ with a severely weakened immune system
  • anyone turning 65 on or after September 2023
  • anyone aged 70 to 79

Shingles is a common condition that causes a painful rash. It can sometimes lead to more serious problems.

Being vaccinated helps reduce the chance of catching shingles and if you do catch it, reduces the possibility of more serious problems developing. 

Flu vaccine

Flu vaccines are safe and effective. They’re offered on the NHS every year in autumn or early winter to help protect people at risk of flu and its complications.

Antibiotics do not work for viral infections such as flu – they won’t relieve your symptoms or speed up your recovery. Your GP might not prescribe them.
