📣 National Invitation Campaign
From July 2025, NHS England will launch a national RSV invitation campaign to support uptake of the RSV (Respiratory Syncytial Virus) vaccine in older adults.
👥 Who Will Receive Invitations?
Invitations will be sent to unvaccinated individuals:
- Who were aged 75–79 on 31 August 2024
- Who have turned 75 since 1 September 2024
🗓 Booking Appointments
- Invitations will advise eligible individuals to contact their GP practice to book an appointment.
- In areas where community pharmacy providers are commissioned to deliver RSV vaccinations, the invitation will also include:
- A link to the National Booking Service
- The RSV walk-in service finder
👉 Practices and pharmacies should ensure sufficient appointment capacity to meet anticipated demand.
🔁 Local Call and Recall
Practices are reminded to continue local call and recall efforts to vaccinate as many eligible patients as possible before 31 August 2025, offering protection before the RSV season begins.
