Immunisation and vaccination schedule

The NHS vaccination schedule

Checklist of the vaccines that are routinely offered to everyone in the UK on the NHS, including the ages at which they should ideally be given is available on the NHS website.

If you’re not sure whether you or your child have had all your routine vaccinations, ask your GP or practice nurse to find out for you. It may be possible to ‘catch up’ later in life.

Try to make sure you or your child have vaccinations delivered on time to ensure protection against serious communicable diseases. Please follow this link for more information on immunisations for under one year old babies, and for upto school age children.

If you’re going to be away from the GP surgery when a vaccination is due, talk to your doctor. It may be possible to arrange for vaccination at a different location.

Travel immunisations and advice

Our practice nurses are available for travel advice and immunisations. An appointment should be made at least 6 weeks prior to travel.
