Catch-up vaccination clinics during the summer holidays

Wednesday, 15 July 2026

As teachers and families across the East Riding count down to the start of the school holidays, here's one thing to think about for your child now – and we're not talking school shoes (wait towards end of August to avoid the inevitable growth spurt). 

East Riding Public Health is asking everyone to take two minutes to double check their child's red book or NHS webpage to see if they have had all their routine NHS vaccinations.

If your child/ren missed their in-school clinics or catch-up sessions in Year 8 and 9 or prefers to have a parent with them, don't worry it's not too late, East Riding and Hull provider Vaccination UK is running a number of summer holiday clinics.

Pre-booking is advised but the team are also offering walk-ins. The full list of dates and locations which include Goole, Driffield, Bridlington, Melbourne, Beverley and Hull is available on the provider's website.

Vaccination UK will be offering young people up to the age of 18 in East Riding or Hull:

  • the MenACWY vaccine which protects against serious infections such as meningitis. If it was missed in Year 9 at school, young people can still ask their GP for this vaccine until their 25th birthday
  • Td/IPV (3-in-1 teenage booster) which protects against tetanus, diphtheria and polio
  • the HPV vaccine which helps protect against certain cancers caused by some types of human papillomavirus (HPV), such as cervical, mouth or throat cancers and genital warts (don't forget this vaccine is for both boys and girls now)
  • Two doses of the MMR vaccine if missed in early childhood, which protects from outbreaks of mumps and measles.

If have any questions or concerns, please get in touch with Vaccination UK's local team by calling: (01482) 453 690 or email: hullandeastriding@vaccinationuk.co.uk

Please note, young people under 25 who have left school can arrange to catch-up on any of the above free NHS vaccines through their GP practice.

The new limited free two dose MenB vaccine will only be available via pharmacies from next Monday, 20 July – this is for current Year 13s OR anyone either starting university as an undergraduate or moving into further education halls for the first time in autumn 2026, aged under 25. Find out more about MenB vaccination on the NHS website or read our latest public health update.
