🩺 Flu Vaccination Update

Hello everyone,

We would like to remind our patients that the flu vaccine is now available at our GP surgery. The flu vaccine helps protect you and those around you from serious illness, especially during the winter months.

The vaccine is free for eligible patients, including older adults, people with long-term health conditions such as diabetes, immunosuppressed patients, pregnant women, and carers.

If you are eligible, please contact the surgery or book your appointment through the usual channels. Getting vaccinated helps keep you, your family, and our community safe.

Thank you for your support. πŸ’™
