Book your appointment now for your flu vaccine. Our clinics start on Wednesday 1st October 2025.

A flu vaccine is needed every year because:

• people's immune protection from vaccination declines over time, so an annual flu vaccine is needed for optimal protection

• flu viruses are constantly changing so the composition of flu vaccines is reviewed annually and vaccines are updated to protect against the viruses that scientific research indicates will be most common during the upcoming flu season

• some individuals will make a suboptimal response to the flu vaccine. This may be because they are immunosuppressed, have co-morbidities or are of older age when the immune system does not respond so well to vaccination.

So don't delay, book your appointment here: https://www.nhs.uk/nhs-services/vaccination-and-booking-services/book-flu-vaccination/

Since it first emerged in 2019, immunity to the virus that causes COVID-19 infection has been increasing due to a combination of naturally acquired immunity following recovery from having had a COVID-19 infection and immunity from having been vaccinated.

COVID-19 is now a relatively mild disease for most people and rates of hospitalisation from COVID-19 have reduced significantly since the virus first emerged.

However, whilst most infected people have no or mild symptoms and will recover from the disease without needing treatment, some people who get COVID-19 still become seriously ill.

Age has always been strongly associated with the risk of hospitalisation, with the oldest in the population being the most vulnerable.

Individuals who are immunosuppressed due to disease or treatment are also at higher risk of serious illness and/or hospitalisation following COVID-19 infection.

This is why it is important for those over 75 years old and those that are immunosuppressed to have their covid booster vaccine this Autumn/Winter.

Our clinics start from Wednesday 1st October and you can book using this link: https://www.nhs.uk/nhs-services/vaccination-and-booking-services/book-covid-19-vaccination/

We have recently supported an amazing charity that makes sure accessible defibrillators are there to restart the hearts of people who may have suffered a CARDIAC ARREST (heart stops beating) in the community.

💔Cardiac arrests may happen because of many reasons, but the most common one is ischaemic heart disease. This is where there is damage to the heart because of narrowing of the blood vessels around the heart.

🚭One of the main causes of this is SMOKING.

You can help prevent this happening to you by QUITTING THE HABIT.

This poster shows all the LOCAL SUTTON PHARMACIES that can help you quit. There is also a new App which you will have access to for free if you sign up!

💪Do something today to PROTECT YOUR FUTURE HEALTH and make sure you are as healthy as you can be for as long as possible!
