Protect yourself from flu this winter

If you are on the Learning Disability Register, you are eligible for a free flu vaccine.

💙 It is important to have your flu vaccine every year.
Flu can be more serious for people with a learning disability, so getting vaccinated helps protect you from becoming seriously unwell.

The flu vaccine is safe and free for people with a learning disability. Carers may also be eligible for a free flu vaccine.

Speak to your GP surgery or local pharmacy to find out more and arrange your flu vaccination.
