Summer Catch-Up Clinics
Dear Parents and Guardians,
The Immunisation Service coordinates the national school-based vaccination programmes for Flu, Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) and Tetanus/Diphtheria/Polio and Meningitis ACWY vaccinations, for eligible students.
Please see the attached flyer which contains information on the vaccinations your child should have received by the end of each year group, and what to do if they have missed any of these. We are running catch up clinics at various locations across Sussex throughout the summer.
If your child has missed any of these vaccinations, and you would like to book an appointment at one of our community catch-up clinics, please follow one of the two options below:
- Option 1 - If you have previously completed a consent form for the vaccination and you would like to book an appointment for:
- Check your emails (including Junk folder) for a ‘Consent Form Submitted’ email from noreply@cinnamondigitalapplications.co.uk This contains your unique booking reference number, which you will need to enter in order to book an appointment.
- Click the following link www.susseximmunisations.co.uk/ClinicBooking/Booking and select the vaccination you are booking an appointment for (this must match the vaccine on the ‘consent form submitted’ email).
- Enter your booking reference number and email address, to view and book an appointment at one of our clinics.
- Option 2 - If you have not previously completed a consent form for the vaccination you would like to book, or you are having any problems booking an appointment, please follow the instructions in the attached flyer to speak to one of the team and arrange a clinic appointment.
