Covid-19 Spring Vaccination Programme - clinics starting in April

Spring’s the perfect time to top up your COVID-19 protection.

The virus remains a serious risk, especially for older adults and those with weakened immune systems.

If you’re eligible, your invitation for a COVID-19 vaccine is on its way. Protection from previous vaccination reduces over time, so it’s important to get vaccinated to help maintain your protection all year round.

This spring, the COVID-19 vaccine is being offered to:

• people with a weakened immune system who are aged 6 months and over (born on or before 1 October 2025)
• adults aged 75 years and over (born on or before 30 June 1951)
• residents in care homes for older adults

Even if your health condition is well managed, you’re still at higher risk of severe illness from COVID-19.
