In Scotland, all young people are offered the MenACWY vaccine in secondary school (S3).

If you’re under 25 and haven’t had it yet, there’s still time. Contact your local immunisation team to book your appointment: nhsinform.scot/gettingvaccinations

Remember, the MenACWY vaccine protects against some types of meningitis, but not all, so it’s still important to know the signs and symptoms.
