Get your flu vaccination today at West Hill Chemist Bridlington.

Flu cases are higher than they have ever been at this time of year.

An average of 2,660 patients per day were in a hospital bed with flu last week. That’s enough flu patients each day to fill more than 3 whole hospital trusts.

If you haven’t already, and you’re eligible, get your flu vaccine.

The flu jab reduces your risk of becoming seriously ill this Christmas, and helps protect those around you.

Book via your GP, pharmacy or the NHS App.

We are thrilled to welcome AJ Reddy Ltd (Marton Road Pharmacy Bridlington and West Hill Chemist) as the newest Corporate Friend of The Hinge!

After attending our annual charity ball, Ash and Jaya the directors of the pharmacies were inspired to support our work in the Bridlington community. They saw the perfect opportunity to get involved by joining our Corporate Friend of The Hinge (CFOTH) programme and becoming a valued Corporate Supporter.

Jaya Authunuri, our local pharmacist, said:
"As a locally owned and operated pharmacy in the heart of Bridlington, we’re more than just a healthcare provider — we’re part of this community. We live here, we work here, and we care deeply about the people who call this town home. Supporting vulnerable residents with medicines and healthcare advice six days a week is at the core of what we do. Our values closely align with those of The Hinge, and partnering with a local charity doing such vital work felt like a natural step. Together, we can reach more people in need and make a lasting difference in the health and wellbeing of our community."

Why their support matters...
Not only are AJ Reddy Ltd donating monthly to the CFOTH programme, but they are also providing Winter Flu Vaccinations for Hinge Centre staff—helping to keep our frontline team safe and well throughout the winter months.

We’re incredibly grateful for their generosity and look forward to working together to make a lasting impact in our community!

🫁 Tomorrow is , and with the new school year starting, it's the perfect time to review your child's asthma management.

As we head into winter cough and cold season, asthma can become more challenging to manage. Here's what you need to check:

🔹 Are their inhalers in date? Check both the preventer inhaler (daily use - usually brown, orange, red or purple) and reliever inhaler (for symptoms - often blue)

🔹 Keep track of doses used - inhalers can seem full but be empty of medicine 🔹 Make sure they have their spacer if needed

🔹 Ensure school staff know about their asthma and have a proper plan

Watch for symptoms of poorly controlled asthma: wheezing, coughing, breathlessness or tight chest.

IMPORTANT: Call 999 immediately if their reliever inhaler isn't helping their symptoms.

For more information, visit NHS England – London's campaign website.
