💊 ONLY ORDER WHAT YOU NEED 💊

Did you know that around £7.5 million is wasted every year in Hertfordshire and west Essex on unused medicines — including inhalers, painkillers, and creams?

That’s money that could go towards vital NHS services. We need your help to change this.

✅ Only order what you need

✅ Check your medicine cabinet before reordering

✅ Speak to your healthcare professional if you’re receiving medicines you don’t use

✅ Never share prescribed medicines — they’re just for you

Together, we can make sure NHS resources go where they’re most needed. Let’s protect our health, our environment, and our community. Find out more at

Important information about this year's Covid vaccination.
Cohorts this year have changed. Please see link below for full details.

https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1DPPuGkcx2/

This autumn, there has been a change in who is eligible for a COVID-19 vaccination. This means that you may not be eligible for a COVID-19 vaccine this year, even if you were last year.

On the advice of the JCVI, the focus of COVID-19 vaccinations is shifting towards targeted vaccination of those at highest risk of serious disease. So this autumn, COVID-19 vaccinations are being offered to:

• adults aged 75 years and over
• residents in care homes for older adults
• people who are immunosuppressed

People who are immunosuppressed include those undergoing some chemotherapy and radiotherapy; transplant recipients, people with HIV; people with genetic conditions or who take medicines that supress their immune system long-term; people who have experienced blood cancers, plus some other specific groups. The definition of immunosuppressed is quite complicated but we've included a link in the comments to the 'green book' which gives more detail.

If you are not in one of the eligible groups this year, a pharmacist or GP won’t be able to give you the COVID-19 vaccine. Thank you to everyone for your understanding and for being kind to staff who are delivering the vaccination programme.
