Parents of primary school children in NHS Ayrshire and Arran are being urged to act now to get their children ready to flight flu this winter.
Following last year’s bad flu season, health professionals have highlighted the benefits of getting children vaccinated early ahead of winter hitting.
Flu vaccination consent forms will be arriving home in school bags over the next few days as the autumn term gets under way, which parents need to return if they wish their child to be vaccinated.
