Chickenpox vaccine – important update

We’d like to let parents/carers of children aged 11 months to 4 years know that a new chickenpox (varicella) vaccine is being introduced.

Please see the link below for more information about the vaccine.

Introduction of a routine varicella (MMRV) vaccination programme for children at one year and at 18 months – GOV.UK

If your child is eligible, the surgery will contact you when they are due to arrange an appointment.

Thank you – Bilsthorpe Surgery
