Flu vaccinations

The flu season started earlier this year and there have been recent sharp increases in the number of flu cases seen – and we have not yet reached the peak.

The Surgery will be receiving additional supplies of the flu vaccine tomorrow afternoon, Wednesday 17th December 2025

We would therefore encourage those patients eligible for a flu vaccination, who have not yet received it, to contact the Surgery to make an appointment, ideally before Christmas.
