At the present time the Council is not aware of what the new measures will be and is waiting for a Government announcement to be made.

The flu vaccination is the best protection for you and those around you which is why it is offered for free to those most at risk. The following groups of people are eligible for free flu vaccinations, either via their GP or pharmacist:
- all adults over the age of 65
- pregnant women
- children aged 2 and 3 years old (on 31 August 2020)
- people aged 6 months to 64 years with underlying health conditions or those with a learning disability.
This year more than ever, it’s vital that those eligible for the flu jab get it this winter so you can protect yourself, your family and the NHS. Ask your pharmacist or GP if you’re eligible for a free flu vaccine.
