Winter Strong: Staff flu vaccination 2025/26 

Protect yourself, your patients, and your colleagues this winter. 

Flu can be debilitating and deadly, but vaccination saves lives and keeps our services running smoothly. This winter we’re aiming to aiming to protect our staff, patients and loved ones by offering free flu vaccinations to all trust colleagues.

All you need to bring along is your NHS number.

All staff who receive the vaccine before 12 December 2025 will be entered into a Christmas prize draw. Prizes include:

  • One £500 voucher
  • One £300 voucher
  • One £200 voucher
  • Five £100 vouchers

The first 1,000 staff to be vaccinated will receive a £3 voucher to spend in our trust's on-site restaurants and cafes.

Why get vaccinated? 

  • The flu virus changes so you need to get vaccinated every year 
  • Healthcare staff are more likely to catch and spread flu, even without symptoms. 
  • The vaccine is safe, effective, and cannot give you flu. 
  • Last year, 96,000–120,200 hospitalisations were prevented in England thanks to the flu vaccine. 

Who should get vaccinated? 

  • All NHS staff 
  • Frontline healthcare workers 
  • Special focus on early-stage pregnant staff and new starters

Access is easy: 

  • Drop-in clinics across the trust (including out of hours) 
  • Peer vaccinators are supporting the programme 

Myth-busting: 

  • “Healthy people don’t need it”— Wrong: healthy people can spread flu. 
  • “Flu jab gave me flu before”— Impossible: the vaccine contains no live virus. 

Over 65's:

The standard vaccine in use isn't suitable for over 65's- an alternative is available by arrangement- please contact Alvin Nierva or occupational health at Frimley Park or Wexham Park
