If you require or are enquiring about any for vaccinations for foreign travel please complete a travel risk assessment.
A member of the nursing team will send you the advice and guidance for your destination and where vaccinations are required you will be asked to arrange an appointment for the vaccinations to be administered.
Please submit your travel risk assessment at least 2 weeks prior to departure to ensure adequate time is available to complete the course of vaccines required. If you are travelling further afield and require one of the private vaccines listed below we would prefer at least 4 weeks notice to ensure you receive the full course of the vaccine, if you submit your form less than 4 weeks before travel we cannot guarantee a full course of treatment.
Please be aware that at peak travel periods of the year it may take up to 2 weeks to complete a travel risk assessment.
You will find further information about countries and vaccinations required at the following website:
It is important to make initial contact as early as possible, as a second & third appointment may be required with the practice nurse to administer the vaccinations. These vaccines have to be ordered as they are not a stock vaccine.
Yellow Fever and Typhoid vaccinations must be given two weeks prior to travelling.
Some travel vaccines are ordered on a private prescription and these incur a charge over and above the normal prescription charge. This is because not all travel vaccinations are included in the services provided by the NHS.
