MMR Catch Up
Our Immbulance is back on the road during the Summer Holidays offering MMR vaccinations for those who have missed a dose or are un-vaccinated.
If you are planning to go on holiday or to any festivals, please come and see us!
Here’s the timetable:
We will also be holding a community pop up session:
No booking required, just drop in!
Alternatively, you can drop in to one of our local vaccination centres at Canolfan Gorseinon Centre and Aberafan Shopping Centre.
If you are not sure if you or your child have had two doses of MMR, you can contact Swansea Bay UHB’s Immunisation Team on 01792 200492, to check which doses you or your child needs.
