Travel Health

Travelling abroad? Contact us as soon as you book to check whether you need any vaccines or health precautions. Ideally we need a minimum of 4 weeks (6 weeks or more is better) to ensure that any vaccines you need are given with sufficient time to be effective. However, even if you have a last minute deal, still talk to us.

You will need to complete a Travel Vaccination Form and return it to reception, who will book you an appointment with the nurse. The nurse will check what immunisations you require prior to you attending.

We offer a full range of travel immunisations, including advice on protection against malaria.

What will I have to pay for?

Not all travel vaccinations are available free on the NHS, even if they're recommended for travel to a certain area. As a general rule, the following travel jabs are usually free:

tetanus, diphtheria and polio booster
typhoid
hepatitis A and some combined vaccines, such as combined hepatitis A and B
cholera

You almost certainly have to pay for vaccinations against meningococcal meningitis, hepatitis B, yellow fever, rabies, tuberculosis, Japanese encephalitis and tick-borne encephalitis.

You are advised to check with the practice nurse before having vaccinations.
