Meningitis B Vaccine

We are aware of concerns about a potential Meningitis B outbreak; however, we have not received updated guidance from NHS England.

The MenB vaccine is only routinely available to infants as part of the NHS schedule and is not offered to children over 1 year old.

Exception:
If you have received a letter from NHS England advising vaccination:

  • You may be eligible
  • You must bring the letter to your appointment
  • The nurse must verify this before the vaccine can be given

We are unable to provide the vaccine outside of this guidance.
