If your child is aged between 5-11yrs and lives with certain chronic health conditions, they may be considered ‘at risk’ from serious illness or complications if they catch COVID-19. You may receive a letter from the NHS in the coming weeks to inform you, your child is eligible to receive a free COVID-19 booster jab this autumn.

Children’s COVID-19 vaccination clinics open their doors from 6 November across the county.

Find your nearest children’s vaccination clinic online by searching ‘COVID vaccinations Dorset’ and book an appointment for your child via the National Booking Service or by calling 119.
