🚫💉 204 Missed Appointments – What It Means for Our Flu Clinic 💉🚫

This past Saturday, 204 patients who were booked in for their flu vaccination at our clinic did not attend and didn’t cancel. 😔

We had reserved flu vaccines specifically for these appointments & patients.

📉 Why this matters:

These vaccines are ordered in advance based on bookings and eligibility so when people don’t attend, they risk going to waste.

Missed appointments delay protection and put more vulnerable people at risk.

Our staff prepare, plan, and show up ready to help and those slots could have gone to others in need.

🙏 Please help us help you:
✔️ If you can’t make it, please cancel or reschedule in advance.
✔️ Show up for your booked appointment it only takes a few minutes to protect yourself and others.
✔️ Encourage friends or family to be mindful too.

If you have had your vaccine else where such as your work place, the pharmacy or you simply don't want it anymore just let us know.

📞 To cancel or rebook, contact us on 01454 313 874

Thank you.
