Winter Vaccinations

In Lancashire and South Cumbria, we know that caring for each other is what makes our communities strong. This winter, our vaccination campaign is here to help you and your loved ones stay safe, healthy, and ready for whatever the season brings. Just like an umbrella shields you from the rain, your winter vaccinations offer vital protection against flu, COVID-19, and RSV. 

This year, we’re making it even easier to get vaccinated, with more locations than ever across Lancashire and South Cumbria. Whether it’s at your GP surgery, local pharmacy, the vaccine van, or one of our many pop-up clinics in the community, you can choose the time and place that works best for you. We want everyone to feel protected under our umbrella.

Why Get Vaccinated?

Protect yourself. Protect others. Get vaccinated.
For many people winter viruses are unpleasant, but for some they can be life-threatening. Vaccines help stop the spread of illness, protecting not just you but your family, friends, and neighbours.

Check if your eligible for free NHS vaccinations.

You can get the free NHS flu vaccine if you:

  • are aged 65 or over (including those who will be 65 by 31 March 2026)
  • have certain long-term health conditions
  • are pregnant
  • live in a care home
  • are the main carer for an older or disabled person, or receive a carer's allowance
  • live with someone who has a weakened immune system
  • are a front line health and social care worker.

Pre-school and school aged children are offered flu vaccination as part of the childhood immunisation schedule. For more details visit the NHS Website.

You can get the winter COVID-19 vaccine if you:

  • are aged 75 or over (including those who will be 75 by 31 January 2026)
  • are aged 6 months to 74 years and have a weakened immune system because of a health condition or treatment
  • live in a care home for older adults.

The RSV vaccine helps protect against respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), a common virus that can make babies and older adults seriously ill.

You can get a free RSV vaccination on the NHS if:

  • you're 28 weeks pregnant or more – the vaccine is recommended during every pregnancy to help protect your baby after they're born
  • you're aged 75 to 79
  • you turned 80 years old after 1 September 2024.
