NHS Lothian is encouraging parents and carers of children aged two to five to ensure their child is vaccinated against flu ahead of winter.
Appointment letters are now arriving at homes inviting children who are not yet in school forward for the free flu vaccine, which is given as a painless nasal spray.
The letters will include details of where and when the vaccine will be given. Parents and carers can reschedule their child’s appointment by contacting the phone number on their letter.
