Free flu vaccine now available for 4-11 year olds

Children across West Sussex are being offered a free flu vaccination as part of the health service’s biggest ever flu protection programme.

The vaccine is available from GP surgeries for children who were aged two to three-years-old.

However this year children from reception class to Year 6 will be offered the nasal spray vaccination.

People aged over the age of 65, pregnant women and adults and children with underlying health conditions continue to be eligible for a free flu vaccination.
