About this service

Why flu vaccination is important
Flu vaccination is important because, while flu is unpleasant for most people, it can be dangerous and even life-threatening for some people, particularly those with certain health conditions.

The best time to have your flu vaccine is in the autumn or early winter before flu starts spreading. But you can get your vaccine later.


Do I have to pay for the flu vaccine?

The seasonal flu vaccine is free to a number of people provided you meet certain criteria:

  • Are 65 and over (including those who will be 65 by 31 March 2024). 
  • Have certain health conditions.
  • Are pregnant.
  • Are in long-stay residential care.
  • Receive a carer's allowance or are the main carer for an older or disabled person who may be at risk if you get sick. 
  • Live with someone who is more likely to get a severe infection due to a weakened immune system, such as someone living with HIV, someone who has had a transplant, or is having certain treatments for cancer, lupus, or rheumatoid arthritis.
