Boost your immunity
Take up your free flu and COVID-19 vaccinations when offered
Getting vaccinated helps keep you and your loved ones safe by reducing your risk of serious illness, hospitalisation and passing on an illness to others.
Each year thousands of people need hospital care for flu, COVID-19, RSV and other preventable illnesses. Sadly, every winter thousands of people die. The risk from these viruses is greater during the winter when they circulate most as people spend more time indoors.
The NHS offers flu and COVID-19 vaccines for free to those most at risk of getting seriously ill. As these viruses change and protection can decrease over time it’s important to come forward every year if you are eligible.
You can check if you are eligible and book both vaccines online on the NHS website, or via the NHS App.
If you can’t get online, you can call 119. You can also book your flu vaccine at your GP practice or if you are over 18 you can find a pharmacy on the NHS website.
