Flu Vaccination

We offer a flu vaccination, in-store, for anyone over the age of 18. If you're 65 and over, have a medical condition or are pregnant, catching flu can be more serious and therefore your vaccination is FREE on the NHS.

  • Receive a carer's allowance, or are the main carer for an older or disabled person who may be at risk if you get sick.

  • Are frontline health or social care workers.
