Signposting school-age children for flu vaccines
Please be advised that if any school-aged children (Reception to Year 11) present at your practice requesting a flu vaccine, they can be signposted to their local Children & Young People Community Immunisation Service (CYPCIS) for flu catch-up, who will provide details of their upcoming community vaccine clinics. The contact details for the CYPCIS provider operating in each London borough can be found below.
As you will be aware, flu is circulating at relatively high levels currently and local data is showing that a significant proportion of the admissions are in children and young people. Therefore we would greatly appreciate your support in signposting unvaccinated school-age children to the appropriate service to receive the flu vaccine.
