Measles cases are rising with over twice as many cases confirmed in the first half of 2023 compared to the previous year. We know that having the MMR vaccine is the best way to protect our communities and this campaign is therefore aimed at improving uptake in MMR vaccinations, improving recording of MMR vaccination status and reducing the risk of outbreaks in England.  

Due to the increased numbers of measles as a surgery we are now offering extra appointments to our patients aged 1 years to 25 years old that are missing this vaccination.

To book an appointment for a MMR vaccine or to find out if you are eligable please call the surgery on 01227 462197
