Childhood vaccinations help protect against serious illnesses like measles, meningitis and whooping cough.

It's important your child has their vaccines when invited — this gives them the best protection at the right time.

If your child has missed any of their routine vaccinations, don’t worry - it’s never too late to get back on track. Please contact your GP practice to arrange a catch-up appointment.

The NHS is asking patients to choose services wisely during the industrial action, and take simple steps wherever possible to help ensure care is available to patients who need it most.

This includes using NHS 111 online as the first port of call, and only using 999 when it is a life-threatening emergency.
