Flu Vaccination Campaign 2025–2026

Comprehensive Protection This Winter at Bramley Pharmacy

As the winter season approaches, protecting yourself against seasonal illnesses such as influenza and COVID-19 becomes increasingly important. At Bramley Pharmacy, we are pleased to launch our 2025–2026 Flu Vaccination Campaign, offering both NHS-funded and private flu vaccinations alongside COVID-19 boosters, where eligible.

Our clinical team will be administering flu vaccinations using the Seqirus influenza vaccine, a highly effective and widely used option that meets NHS guidelines. Patients will also have the opportunity to receive the autumn COVID-19 booster at the same appointment, subject to eligibility and stock availability.

Walk-in Vaccinations

You don’t need to book an appointment to have your flu or COVID vaccination at Bramley Pharmacy. We aim to always have a trained vaccinator available on site, so you can simply walk in at a time that suits you. There may be a short wait during busy periods, but you will be seen as soon as possible.

Why Get Vaccinated?

Influenza and COVID-19 can lead to severe illness, particularly in older adults, those with chronic conditions, and individuals with weakened immune systems. Vaccination remains the most effective way to reduce the risk of:

• Serious illness and hospitalisation

• Transmission to vulnerable people

• Work and school absence due to illness

• Seasonal healthcare burden on the NHS

The vaccines we use are safe, evidence-based, and administered by qualified clinicians in a safe, professional environment.
