🌟 Protecting Our Children Through Vaccination 🌟

At Knowsley Medical Centre, we want to remind parents and carers how important childhood immunisations are in keeping children safe from serious illnesses such as measles, mumps, whooping cough, and meningitis.

Vaccines not only protect your child, but also help protect vulnerable members of our community.

Did you know? In many parts of the United States, children cannot attend school unless they are fully vaccinated, unless they have a valid medical exemption. This highlights how seriously countries around the world take the protection of children’s health.

Making sure your child’s vaccinations are up to date is one of the best ways to give them a healthy start in life. 💙

If you’re unsure whether your child is due any vaccinations, please contact our reception team and we’ll be happy to help.

🌿 What can help?
• Check pollen forecasts and try to stay indoors when counts are high
