Flu, Pneumonia and Shingles Vaccines

Flu, Pneumonia and Shingles Vaccines

We offer the annual seasonal flu vaccination. This is generally made available in March each year and we ask that you call to see if we have had our delivery.

We are able to offer this flu vaccine free to anyone under 5, 65 years and over and anyone in an at-risk category (chronic disease group). If in doubt, please ask a member of staff.

Pneumovax is also free to people aged 65 and over and again to those individuals in an at-risk category.

Please feel free to discuss this with either the GP or the nurse.

The government has implemented a shingles program for individuals aged 70-79 years old inclusive. This means that if you fall into that age group you are entitled to a free shingles (zostavax) vaccine. Please feel free to discuss this with your GP or the nurse.
