NHS Flu Vaccination at Granshaws Chemist

Stay protected this flu season with the NHS flu vaccination available at Granshaws Chemist. The flu vaccine is the best way to protect yourself and others from the flu, a potentially serious viral infection that can lead to complications, particularly in vulnerable groups.

Who Should Get the Flu Vaccine?

The NHS offers free flu vaccinations to those at higher risk of complications. You are eligible for a free NHS flu vaccination if you:

Are aged 65 and over
Are pregnant
Have certain medical conditions (such as asthma, diabetes, or heart disease)
Are living in a long-stay residential care home
Receive a carer’s allowance, or are the main carer for an elderly or disabled person
Live with someone who has a weakened immune system
Are a frontline health or social care worker

Why Get the Flu Vaccination?

The flu can be much more than a minor inconvenience; it can cause severe illness and lead to hospitalisation, especially in those with underlying health conditions. By getting vaccinated, you not only protect yourself but also help prevent the spread of flu to those around you, particularly those who may be more vulnerable to its effects.
