Local information about vaccination (sometimes referred to as immunisation) in Bristol, North Somerset and South Gloucestershire.
Vaccines save lives. They protect people from serious diseases and prevent outbreaks of illness in communities.
Everyone living in the UK is recommended to be up to date with routine vaccinations to protect you and your loved ones throughout life. You can check which vaccinations you have had by checking your child health record, also known as your ‘red book’. Alternatively, you can contact your GP and ask for your vaccination record.
If you or your child have missed any routine vaccinations, contact your GP to make an appointment for a free ‘catch up’ vaccine.
Where we do not have local information about a particular vaccination, we provide a link to trusted national NHS resources.
