Planning to travel abroad?

 

We can help you to plan what vaccines you may need for your intended trip.

Phone our reception team and ask for the travel form to be sent to you via SMS.

Please contact us 7 working days after we receive the completed form, to find out if any vaccines are required. It is important to start thinking about this as early as possible - at least 6 weeks before you travel - as an appointment will be required with the practice nurse to receive the vaccinations. Your appointment needs to be at least 2 weeks before you travel to allow the vaccines to work.

Free travel vaccinations included by the NHS are:

  • Polio, Diphtheria and Tetanus booster (3 in 1 vaccine) – 10 years protection
  • Hepatitis A  –  25 years protection after 2 doses
  • Typhoid fever –  3 years protection
  • Cholera (only if considered high risk)

 

If you are recommended to have vaccinations that we cannot provide, you will need to obtain these from a private travel clinic, at least 6 weeks in advance of your intended trip.
