Useful Travel Information Websites

The Travel Health Organisations section on this website has lots of useful links to help you.

Travel Vaccination Charges

We offer the travel health service. However, the NHS does not cover the cost of all the treatments you may need. Therefore, for some services you may need to pay additional charges.

Malaria Tablets are NOT provided on the NHS and sometimes can be bought over the counter or may require a private prescription. The nurse can advise regarding this, or you could discuss with your pharmacist. REMEMBER some tablets have to be started at least one week before you travel, and you need continue to take them when you return to the UK for the advised length of time.
