🎓✨ Heading to university? Don’t forget to get your vaccines! 💉

Before you start your higher education journey, make sure you’re up to date with your MenACWY and MMR vaccinations. These are crucial for protecting yourself and others against serious diseases.

🔹 MenACWY Vaccine: Protects against meningitis and septicaemia, which can spread quickly in close living conditions like university halls.

🔹 MMR Vaccine: Safeguards against measles, mumps, and rubella, which are still prevalent and can be highly contagious.

For more details on how to get these vaccines and why they’re so important, check out the UCAS guide here: https://www.ucas.com/undergraduate/clearing-and-results-day/after-results-day/getting-ready-higher-education/vaccines-students

Stay healthy and enjoy your time at university! 🎓🌟

🚨 Stay Aware: Spotting Melanoma Early 🚨

Melanoma is a serious skin cancer that can be life-threatening if not caught early. Knowing what to look out for can make all the difference. Here’s what you need to know:

🔍 Changes in Moles or Spots:

- Asymmetry: One half doesn’t match the other.

- Border: Edges are irregular, blurred, or jagged.

- Colour: Multiple shades or uneven colour within the same spot.

- Diameter: Larger than 6mm (about the size of a pencil eraser).

- Evolving: Changes in size, shape, colour, or texture.

🕵️‍♀️ Look for New Growths or Unusual Changes:

If you notice any new spots or changes in existing moles, especially if they look different from the rest, get them checked out by a healthcare professional.

🏥 Act Fast: Early detection saves lives. If you’re unsure or worried, book an appointment with your GP.

Is your child up to date with their vaccinations? Check their Red Book or contact your GP surgery to find out and book any missed doses. 📱📅

More info: nhs.uk/childhoodvaccinations

Why are vaccines important?

Vaccines protect children from serious diseases such as measles, mumps, and polio. They are safe and effective, helping to build immunity and prevent the spread of infections within the community. Vaccination not only protects your child but also helps safeguard public health by achieving herd immunity. Ensure your child gets all recommended doses on time for the best protection.
