🤧 Help protect your child this winter — have they had their flu vaccination? 💙
As the colder months approach, flu can spread quickly among children, affecting their health, disrupting school and potentially spreading to vulnerable family members.
💉 There are 5 great reasons to get your child vaccinated against flu:
✅ Protect your child from flu and serious complications, including bronchitis and pneumonia.
❤️ Help protect your family and friends, particularly grandparents and others who may be more vulnerable.
👃 No injection needed for most children — the nasal spray vaccine is quick and painless.
🛡️ A well-established vaccine that has been given to millions of children worldwide and has an excellent safety record.
🏫 Help avoid disruption to school, work and family life caused by flu.
The children's flu vaccine is offered free through the NHS to eligible children. Most receive it as a simple nasal spray.
👨👩👧👦 Please don't leave it until flu is already spreading. Book online at https://www.nhs.uk/nhs-services/vaccination-and-booking-services/book-flu-vaccination/ or see your pharmacist.
Let's work together to keep our children, families and communities healthier this winter
