The vaccine protects children from measles, mumps and rubella - illnesses that spread easily and can cause serious complications like meningitis, hearing loss and risks in pregnancy.

Children now receive the vaccine (measles, mumps, rubella + chickenpox) in two doses at 12 and 18 months. If your child has missed a dose, it’s never too late to catch up - call us to book in!

helps protect your child and vulnerable people in the community. It has been used safely for decades and provides long term protection 👊

Today is Blue Monday, often called the “saddest day of the year” - a reminder that many people feel a dip in mood at this time of year.

Blue Monday is really about encouraging us all to pause, check in with ourselves, and look after our mental wellbeing.

Here are a few small ways to brighten your day:
✨ Talk to someone you trust
🚶 Take a short walk
🌤️ Give yourself a break from negative news or social media
🥰 Be kind to yourself

We’re here if you need support. 💙
