Important FLU CLINIC Info
Here are the latest details of our 2020 flu vaccination programme
Shielding patients
- You will receive a letter inviting you to contact the practice on or after Thursday 10 September to book your flu vaccination (only those patients who have be written to will be booked in.)
- You will be offered an appointment between 21st and 25th September in the marquee at the rear of the practice.
Patients aged 50-64 years who are in an ‘at risk’ group for Covid-19 – AND – Patients aged 65 or over
- On Monday 14 Sept, you will receive a text invitation asking you to book a vaccination for Saturday 26 Sept at the practice (vaccinations for those aged 65+ will be done in the morning).
Patients aged 50-64 years who are NOT ‘at risk’
- We will text you details as soon as they become available
- It seems likely that the earliest flu vaccination for this group will be November – provided there is sufficient vaccine available to us.
ALL patients
When you come for vaccination, please be mindful of our Covid-19 Safety Measures and social distancing:
- Arrive promptly – do not come too early for your appointment
- Come into the surgery alone, unless you rely on assistance
- You will have your temperature taken on arrival – if it is too high you will be asked to go home and contact the Surgery the following week to re-arrange
- You must wear a face mask or face covering

Thankyou.
