If you require any vaccinations relating to foreign travel you need to make an appointment with the practice nurse to discuss your travel arrangements. This will include which countries and areas within countries that you are visiting to determine what vaccinations are required. You must book your travel appointment 6 weeks prior to travel to ensure any vaccines are administered in a timely manner.
There is further information about countries and vaccinations required on the links below
 Europe & Russia |  North America |
 Central America |  South America |
 Caribbean |  Africa |
 Middle East |  Central Asia |
 East Asia |  Australasia and Pacific |
It is important to make this initial appointment as early as possible – at least 6 weeks before you travel – as a second appointment will be required with the practice nurse to actually receive the vaccinations. These vaccines have to be ordered as they are not a stock vaccine. Your second appointment needs to be at least 2 weeks before you travel to allow the vaccines to work.
Please note that not all vaccinations are covered by the NHS and charge may apply.
Not all travel vaccines are available on the NHS therefore some charges may apply.
