Young children can catch and spread flu easily, and it can be very unpleasant for them. It can also lead to serious health complications.

Vaccination helps protect them, as well as others who are at higher risk of getting seriously ill from flu, such as babies, anyone who's pregnant, and older people.

Most kids get the vaccine in the form if a quick, painless spray up the nose – it only takes a second, but can help provide the protection needed for them and others over the winter.

Pre-schoolers can get vaccinated at their GP surgery, so accept the invitation to help protect them and others.
