Our annual flu vaccination clinics will be held at Ashfields Primary Care Centre.  This year, due to the current pandemic it is more challenging, as we have to adhere to the government advice regarding social distancing.

In order for Ashfields to meet the guidelines and to ensure that patients and staff are safe there will be a one way system in place, at two different entrances to the building.

We would like to ensure that you and others around you are safe whilst attending for your flu vaccination.

  • If you have any symptoms of COVID on the date of your appointment, please do not attend
  • Please wear a mask or face covering when you attend
  • Please come alone, unless you have a carer or need help to attend
  • Please arrive at the time of your appointment to avoid having to wait, please DO NOT arrive early as you may not be able to enter the building straight away

The first flu clinic will be on

The next flu clinic is on
