Our School Aged Immunisation team will be running flu clinics at community venues across Gloucestershire during the half-term holiday (27-31 October) for those children who do not wish to receive their flu vaccination at school, have missed it due to absence, are home schooled or not in mainstream education.
As we enter the 2025-2026 flu season, the School Aged Immunisation team at Gloucestershire Health and Care NHS Foundation Trust is reminding parents and carers of the importance of protecting their children against the virus by ensuring they have their flu vaccination.
The NHS is offering the HPV vaccination to all young people in Gloucestershire from Year 8 to age 25 who have not already received it.
With the number of reported measles cases in young people in the UK on the rise, the School Age Immunisation Team at Gloucestershire Health and Care NHS Foundation Trust is urging parents and guardians of children in Years 8 to 11 (aged 12 to 16) to check their MMR status and make sure they are fully vaccinated against the disease.
