How to get the flu or COVID-19 vaccine

If you are eligible for a free NHS flu vaccine or COVID-19 vaccine, we will contact you to arrange your appointment. Eligible patients will receive an online booking link via SMS text message in the weeks before the flu/COVID season starts. If you do not have a mobile phone, we will contact you via the contact method we hold for you. You may also contact the practice by telephone to book an appointment.

 

There are now more NHS providers, such as pharmacies, offering free seasonal influenza vaccinations. This aims to increase convenience and address healthcare inequalities. However, GP practices like ours rely on the NHS funding from this program to subsidise other essential services. Therefore, if possible, please support our practice by getting your Flu vaccines from us. Thank you.
