Flu & Covid Vaccinations 2026/27

Our autumn/winter vaccination programme starts on Saturday 19 September. Where possible, both the flu & Covid vaccines will be given at the same time.

​

Please note: there has been a delay in the under 65s flu vaccine. At present we are only vaccinating over 65s and children aged 2 to 17 (up to their 18th birthday). We will update this page once we know delivery dates.

Covid vaccine only
Adults aged 18 to 59 who are not in a risk group can choose to receive a COVID-19 vaccine once a year, following discussion with a healthcare provider.
