Flu and Covid Vaccinations Autumn 2024

We are now starting to invite eligible patients to book for their Flu and Covid vaccinations - invites are being sent by SMS texts, or by letter if we do not have a mobile telephone number for you or if you have declined consent for messaging.

The letter will contain full details but if you do need to telephone the surgery to book your appointment, we are asking that you ring from Tuesday 1st October onwards and that you telephone after 10am.  This allows us to deal with urgent patient issues in the morning.

Patients aged 65years and above are eligible for both flu and covid vaccinations. 

Patients aged 18 to 64 with certain health conditions may be eligible for flu, covid or both vaccines but the eligibility criteria for covid has changed this year.  This does mean less people with be offered the Covid vaccination by the NHS in this campaign than in previous years.

We are inviting on the eligibility criteria for flu, and patients will also be offered a covid vaccination if they are eligible at the same appointment.

Parking at our surgeries is extremely limited (especially Hemyock) so we would ask that where possible, you park away from the surgery and walk to your appointment.
