We are currently inviting our patients for their Flu vaccinations. Getting your winter vaccinations is one of the best ways to protect yourself and those around you from serious illnesses like flu and COVID-19.
This year, the NHS is offering seasonal vaccines to those who are most at risk of becoming seriously unwell.
Who is eligible?
Vaccines are being offered to people in certain groups to give them the best protection. You will be contacted if you are eligible for a vaccination. This may include:
- Older adults
- People with certain long-term health conditions
- Pregnant women
- Children in specific age groups
How to get your vaccine
Aylestone Health Centre will be offering Flu vaccinations from 01.10.25. The practice is not offering COVID-19 vaccines this year and are recommending you attend a local pharmacy for this service.
When it’s your turn to get a Flu Vaccination, you may receive a text, email, or a letter. Please wait to be contacted before trying to book an appointment.
You can often book your appointment through the link which is attached to the message that you get or you can ring the Reception Team on 0116 2837825 to book an appointment.
- You can find more information about the flu vaccine, including who is eligible, on the NHS website.
- For details on the COVID-19 vaccine, visit the NHS COVID-19 vaccination pages.
If you are a parent, school-aged children will often be offered their flu vaccination at school. This is a simple and effective way to help keep them and their classmates healthy during the winter.
Remember, getting vaccinated is a kind way to protect yourself, your family, and our whole community.
