Children are offered a flu vaccine to help protect them against the disease and help reduce its spread both to other children, including their brothers or sisters, and, of course, their parents and grandparents.

If your child is eligible for their flu vaccine, you should speak to their GP to book an appointment.

Children aged 2 to 3 years, school-aged children (Reception to Year 11) and children with certain long-term health conditions can now get their flu vaccines.
