Overview

Flu and COVID-19 vaccinations

Our vaccine centre is now closed

The COVID-19 autumn/winter vaccination programme has ended. Our vaccine centre is now closed for COVID-19 and flu vaccinations. Some people at increased risk of getting seriously ill from COVID-19 may be able to get a seasonal COVID-19 vaccine later in 2024.

COVID-19 autumn/winter booster vaccinations and seasonal flu vaccinations are now available for eligible people at our vaccination centre at Guy’s Hospital.

We offer vaccinations in line with the Government’s guidelines.

COVID-19 vaccinations will also be available for eligible people who have not completed their original course.

How to book

Please book your vaccination appointment using the Trust’s online booking system.

We also offer some walk-in appointments, although we recommend you check the national find a walk in site website for opening times.

Please note: the national booking system through the NHS website has now closed so you need to book your vaccines directly with the vaccination centre you wish to receive them from.

If you need to cancel or change your appointment, please contact us using the details provided on this page.

Vaccinations for children and young people

To find out more about COVID-19 vaccinations for children and young people, please visit Evelina London website.

Flu vaccinations for children and young people are available through their GP, school or community clinic. Please visit the NHS website to find out more.

You cannot usually choose which vaccine you have. When you book, you'll only be offered appointments for vaccines that are suitable for you.

Most people can have any of the COVID-19 vaccines, but some people are only offered certain vaccines based on medical suitability.

When you come for your appointment, we will ask you questions about your relevant medical history. This will tell us whether you are medically suitable for the vaccine you have been booked for. If because of your medical history you are not suitable for that vaccine, we will offer you an alternative vaccine. 

Please check the NHS website for the latest guidance.

The COVID-19 vaccines approved for use in the UK have met strict standards of safety, quality and effectiveness.

They can cause some side effects, but not everyone gets them.

Please visit the NHS website for further information about COVID-19 vaccines side effects and safety.

You may receive an invitation from NHS England to book a vaccine appointment.

There have been reports of text message scams where the link goes to a fake NHS form which asks for bank details as proof of identity. The NHS will never ask for banking information.

Information about scams and what you should do is available on the national cyber security poster (PDF 905KB).

If you received your vaccine at our hospitals and your records are not showing correctly, please email [email protected] and we will respond to you within 48 hours.

We're unable to amend any vaccination records for vaccines that were administered, and records uploaded, elsewhere. Please contact the vaccination hub where you received your vaccination, or contact your GP who will be able to look into your query further.
