Many children have missed vital routine vaccinations, including polio, tetanus, diphtheria, measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) over the past couple of years. Find out what vaccinations your child should have and contact your GP to get them vaccinated if you need to.  

If you are unsure of what immunisation your child has received and whether they are up to date, you can contact your GP and request a copy of their immunisation record which can be emailed to you.
