We will be operating our flu clinics every Wednesday, Thursday and Friday throughout the winter. Appointment times will be from 09:30 to 10:15 and from 4:45 to 5:30.
If you already have a booking with your GP surgery then we ask that you honour this appointment.
We will also be providing private flu vaccinations for those who do not meet NHS eligibility but would like to ensure they stay healthy and protected against the flu this winter. These appointments are bookable via our website and will be at a cost of Β£21.99 per person.
Bookings can now be made via our website. We encourage people to book early to help ensure protection this winter. We will be doing walk-in appointments but these will be subject to availability of the pharmacist.
