Heading to university in September? 🎓

Before you pack for halls, sort this one out.

First-year uni students are around 7x more likely to catch MenB (meningococcal group 😎 than others their age.

Close quarters in halls and freshers' socials make it easy to spread. It can go from first symptoms to serious illness in hours, so it's worth those two quick jabs of protection before you go.

If you're in Year 13 or starting uni/halls for the first time this autumn, you can get it FREE on the NHS at your local Pharmacy, no GP referral needed.

📅 Book now to get both doses done before freshers' week
💉 Just pop into Winnersh Pharmacy & Clinic or book via the NHS website from 13th July and put RG41 5LT as nearby postcode.

Be aware buying fake medicines ⚠️💊
There has been an increase in the number of unregistered online sellers and other outlets across the country including in the Thames Valley which poses a health risk for people who use them.
Often these websites and outlets - which can also be accessed via social media - are unlicenced and sell fake or illegal products which are ineffective or contaminated and could damage your health.
In addition, it is being reported that these fake products are being sold via some beauty salons and hairdressers to unsuspecting customers.
You can avoid putting your health at risk by checking if online sellers are licensed with the General Pharmaceutical Council website which lists pharmacies who are licenced to practice and sell products visit: – https://www.pharmacyregulation.org/
