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.
