Not eligible on the NHS?

Private flu and COVID-19 vaccinations

If you fall outside the NHS groups above, you can still protect yourself this winter. Private vaccinations are arranged by phone only and are subject to availability.

Private flu vaccination

£22.99

A single dose each autumn, using the current season's vaccine. Suitable for anyone who wants protection but isn't covered by the NHS programme — including many working-age adults and families.

Private COVID-19 vaccination

£95

A single dose for anyone not currently eligible on the NHS — popular ahead of winter, before travel, or for peace of mind around vulnerable family members.

To arrange a private vaccination, call 01626 854977. Private flu and COVID-19 vaccinations cannot be booked online — please phone us and we will check current stock and arrange a time. Both are subject to availability.

Common questions

Flu & COVID-19 vaccination FAQs

Do you offer NHS RSV vaccinations?
No — we do not offer NHS RSV vaccinations. If you are eligible, please contact your GP surgery or check the NHS website for local availability. We do offer RSV vaccination privately if you would prefer not to wait.
Can I have flu and COVID-19 vaccines at the same visit?
In many cases yes — it is common to have both together where both are available and appropriate for you. Mention it when booking or when you call, and we will arrange it where we can.
Why can't I book a private jab online?
Private flu and COVID-19 stock varies through the season, so we arrange these by phone to make sure we have the vaccine in for you before you make the journey. Call 01626 854977 and we will sort it out.
I'm not sure whether I'm eligible for a free NHS vaccine.
Give us a call or check the NHS website — eligibility depends on your age, health conditions, pregnancy, living arrangements and caring responsibilities. If you turn out not to be eligible, a private vaccination is available.
Delivered by our registered pharmacy team in line with the national NHS vaccination programme. Eligibility criteria and booking are set by the NHS — see the NHS vaccination and booking service.
