Childhood vaccinations 

In England, vaccines are free, safe and available to all.

By immunising your child, you’re helping to protect them, you and our community from many serious childhood diseases. Such as measles, mumps and rubella, polio and meningitis.

Contact your GP Surgery to book their vaccinations now. 

If you are registered with a practice within South Sefton Primary Care Network, you can find their contact details, and links to their website, at the foot of this page. 

Protect your child from serious childhood diseases.

The NHS offers free vaccinations to all children and adults who live here who are registered with a GP.

Does my child need to be vaccinated?

Vaccines are not mandatory in England, but they are the best way to protect your child from a serious illness.

If your child has already been vaccinated in the country they were born in, they may still need another or different vaccine.

This is simply because our approval processes are some of the strictest in the world and we want to make sure everyone is fully protected.
