Missed a school vaccine? We’ve got you covered this summer

School children in Nottingham and Nottinghamshire can catch up on any missed vaccinations at a series of clinics running over the summer holidays.

The School Aged Immunisation Service will be offering vaccinations at family hubs and community venues across the county and city.

The following vaccinations, which are normally given in year 8 and 9, include:

• Human Papillomavirus (HPV): One injection is given in year 8 to protect against some cancers and genital warts linked to the HPV virus.
• Tetanus, diphtheria and polio (3-in-1 teenage booster vaccine (Td/IPV): One injection is given in year 9 to complete the five-dose course which gives most people lifelong protection against tetanus, diphtheria and polio.
• Meningococcal (Men) ACWY vaccine (MenACWY): One injection is given in year 9 to protect against meningitis and septicaemia caused by four groups of meningococcal bacteria – A, C, W and Y.

There will also be a few clinics offering only measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccinations for children from reception to year 11 who have missed one or more doses.
