The extra polio booster offer in London has now ended. A catch up campaign in schools for under-vaccinated children in London will launch during the summer term. Further information will be available soon on the Polio collection.

Children remain eligible for their routine polio vaccinations. You can contact your GP surgery or check your child’s personal child health record (red book) to see if they are up to date with their polio vaccinations. If they are not, you can book an appointment with the GP surgery to get them vaccinated free on the NHS. Find out more about NHS vaccinations and when to have them.
