The provider guide for the autumn/winter 26/27 seasonal vaccinations programme has been published on FutureNHS. It brings together the key operational information providers need to deliver the adult flu, COVID-19 and children’s flu programmes this season.
All participating providers should review the guide and make sure their team is familiar with the sections relevant to their service, whether that’s adult flu, COVID-19, children’s flu, or a combination.
One thing worth building into your planning: this isn’t a one-off publication. Updates will be posted at the same FutureNHS link throughout the season, so it’s worth checking back rather than relying on a saved or printed copy from earlier in the year.
For practice managers coordinating this year’s campaign, a good starting point is to read the guide alongside whoever leads on vaccinations in your practice, and flag anything that’s changed since last season — cohort eligibility, consent processes, or recording requirements are the areas most likely to shift.
