Fighting flu by coming to you – look out for our flumobiles

October 28, 2019

Our flu season continues to be a success with us having administered a total of 2,432 vaccinations to colleagues with 1,967 of jabs being given to patient facing colleagues as of Friday 25 October.

Last week we administered flu vaccination to many of our Muslim colleagues after their Friday prayers. We were able to do this as there are no porcine products contained within the adult flu vaccination on offer at our Trust. 

We are pleased to confirm that the ‘Flumobile’ will once again be visiting our community sites.

Below are some confirmed dates and times for clinics.
