*NHS & Private Seasonal Flu Vaccine

About this service

This pharmacy offers a free NHS flu vaccination service for eligible patients.

For those not eligible for a free vaccination we offer a paid vaccination service.

Flu vaccination is available every year on the NHS to help protect adults and children at risk of flu and its complications.

Flu can be unpleasant, but if you are otherwise healthy it will usually clear up on its own within a week.

However, flu can be more severe in certain people, such as:

• pregnant women
• children and adults with an underlying health condition (particularly long-term heart or respiratory disease)
• children and adults with weakened immune systems

Anyone in these risk groups is more likely to develop potentially serious complications of flu, such as pneumonia (a lung infection), so it's recommended that they have a flu vaccine every year to protect them.

The injected flu vaccine is offered free on the NHS annually to:

• aged 2 and 3 years on 31 August 2024
• eligible school aged children (Reception to Year 11)
• those aged 6 months to under 65 years in clinical risk groups
• pregnant women
• all those aged 65 years and over
• those in long-stay residential care homes
• carers, those in receipt of carer’s allowance or main carer of an older or disabled person
• household contacts of immunocompromised individuals
• frontline health and social care staff
