Get your flu jab

Unfortunately the number of flu infections seems especially high. The council's public health team is urging people to get vaccinated.

Free flu vaccinations are available for people aged 65 and over, people with weakened immune systems or long-term health conditions, pregnant women, and children aged two and three years old. Free Covid-19 vaccines are offered to people aged 75 and over, those with weakened immune systems, and care home residents.

You can check your eligibility and book a free flu or Covid-19 vaccination through your GP, local pharmacy, the NHS App, or the national booking service.

Stay safe. We hope you have a healthy and happy Christmas.
