FREE FLU VACCINES NOW IN STOCK!

Get yourself protected for the coming winter with a free NHS flu vaccine.

Please call or pop in to the pharmacy for your vaccination on the same day.

We will update your NHS record so that your GP is aware you have had your flu jab.

Who can have the flu vaccine?
The flu vaccine is given free on the NHS to adults who:

are 65 and over (including those who will be 65 by 31 March 2023)
have certain health conditions
- are pregnant
- are in long-stay residential care
receive a carer's allowance, or are the main carer for an older or disabled person who may be at risk if you get sick
- live with someone who is more likely to get a severe infection due to a weakened immune system, such as someone living with HIV, someone who has had a transplant, or is having certain treatments for cancer, lupus or rheumatoid arthritis
- are frontline health workers
- are social care workers who cannot get the vaccine through an occupational health scheme at work

Starting from mid-October, people aged 50 years old or over (including those who will be 50 years old by 31 March 2023) can have a free NHS flu vaccine. This is so at-risk groups can be offered vaccination first.

If you’re in this age group and have a long-term health condition that puts you at risk from flu, you do not have to wait until mid-October.
