Flu season is well and truly upon us.

Evidence shows that flu is currently circulating in our communities, with flu strains causing more severe illness than expected.

Early indicators point to a potentially earlier and/or a higher peak in flu cases and a longer duration of high levels of flu circulating this winter.

This will likely have a bigger impact on the most vulnerable populations, such as children, those with long term health conditions, and older adults.

So, it’s really important not to delay having your flu vaccination.

We are strongly urging everyone who is eligible to take up the offer of the flu vaccination to help prevent further spread and any risk of serious illnesses.

Missed your appointment or yet to be invited?

Your GP surgery is still offering these vaccines to eligible adults and children, while your community pharmacy will offer the flu vaccine to eligible adults only.

Free resources are now available for anyone supporting a child with a Learning Disability, and they may also be helpful for children who are not yet meeting their developmental milestones.

These materials were developed by clinicians working in the field, together with parents with lived experience, to ensure information is accessible, free, and available whenever it’s needed.

The team leading the development of these resources is a specialist behaviour service. Through their work with families and carers, they recognised a lack of accessible information to help people understand their child’s presentation. These resources were created to bridge that gap, offering clear, practical guidance that families and carers can use in everyday life. The resources include videos, downloadable information, and practical tools covering key areas such as communication, behaviour, and sensory needs. We hope to empower families and carers with the knowledge and confidence they need to better support their child.

Please take a look at the resources, share them with anyone who might find them helpful, and let us know if there’s anything else you’d like to learn about via our feedback form on the website.
