Why get a flu jab?

The flu vaccine is the most effective way of preventing seasonal flu, therefore reducing your chance of needing to access other NHS services this winter. Flu is a contagious viral disease that can spread by coughing, sneezing, or touching contaminated surfaces or people. The impact of COVID-19 has been visible to all of us and we may be faced with the combined risk of COVID-19 and flu this coming winter. Therefore stay healthy and protect your friends, family, and work colleagues by getting vaccinated. One of our fully trained pharmacists will carry out a consultation to ensure that the flu jab is safe and appropriate for you.

We can offer Free NHS Flu Vaccinations to the following patient groups

• Age 65+
• Pregnant women
• Those with diabetes or asthma
• Patients with lung, heart, kidney or liver diseases
• Those with a weakened immune system (or live with someone who has)
