If you require any vaccinations relating to foreign travel you will need to complete the travel health questionnaire either using the link below or by collecting a paper copy from the practice. Ideally we need 12 weeks notice to ensure the correct vaccinations can be given.
There is further information about countries and vaccinations required on the links below
It is important to complete the questionnaire as early as possible – at least 12 weeks before you travel – as an appointment will be required with the practice nurse to actually receive the vaccinations. Some vaccines require a second appointment which ideally needs to be at least 2 weeks before you travel to allow the vaccines to work.
The practice is not able to offer some of the recommended vaccinations and you would have to source these at a private travel clinic; this is because not all travel vaccinations are included in the services provided by the NHS.
