A simple way to get your vaccinations.
Getting vaccinated protects you and those around you against Flu this winter. It’s really easy to get vaccinated.
Find your closest pharmacy – we have locations at the heart of Morpeth, Pegswood and Ashington.
Simply attend your chosen site during our clinic hours displayed above, and we will fit you in to be seen by one of our highly skilled team members, as quickly as possible.
We’ll confirm your name, information and eligibility, and then our Pharmacist will be able to explain the vaccinations and take your consent. Our Pharmacist or trained staff member will then administer the vaccination(s) and provide any aftercare advice, after which you will be able to leave unless we need to observe you for a set amount of time.
*On average, we cannot always guarantee this timing.
