Autumn 2025 COVID-19 vaccination programme

The Grove Medical Centre would like to make you aware that this year we will be delivering the autumn 2025 COVID-19 vaccination programme in-house. This means that from the 1st of October 2025 our doctors and clinicians will be offering vaccination appointments at the practice. If you are eligible for both, you could have your Covid and flu vaccination at the same appointment. We will invite eligible patients in due course either by text message, phone or letter.

As far as we are aware currently, the eligibility criteria are:

Vaccination will be offered in England in autumn 2025 to:

adults aged 75 years and over
residents in a care home for older adults
individuals aged 6 months and over who are immunosuppressed, as defined in tables 3 and 4 of the COVID-19 chapter of the Green Book, the UK Health Security Agency’s information on immunisation against infectious disease

In line with JCVI advice, frontline health and social care workers (HSCWs) and staff working in care homes for older adults will not be eligible for COVID-19 vaccination under the national programme for autumn 2025.
