From 22 April until 30 June 2024, the seasonal COVID-19 booster will be available, free, for those who are at greatest risk of becoming seriously ill from the virus.
The NHS will be inviting those eligible, but you do not need to wait for an invitation to book your vaccine. If you are eligible, you can:
Download the NHS App and make an appointment:
Visit www.nhs.uk/get-vaccine
Call 119 for free if you can’t get online (translators are available)
Alternatively, a number of walk-in sites will be open across north west London from 22 April. You can view the full list of walk-in clinics in north west London to find a site that’s convenient for you.
No booking is required at walk-in clinics, but you are advised to contact the vaccination site in advance to confirm their opening times. Individuals do not need to be registered with the NHS to use walk-in services and do not need to bring any identification.
Those people who are eligible and should have the vaccination this spring are:
1. Adults aged 75 years and over
2. Residents in care homes for older adults
3. Individuals aged 6 months and over* who are immunosuppressed (as defined in the Green Book, chapter 14a; tables 3 and 4).
*Please also note that not all sites offer vaccination to children. It is advised to contact the site in advance to check this.
