A new one-off NHS programme makes the MenB vaccine free for Year 13s and new university starters this summer. Not eligible? Book privately at any of our four Oxford branches.
One-off and time-limited for summer 2026, in response to recent rises in meningococcal cases. Delivered free through community pharmacies.
Year 13 students (born 1 Sep 2007 – 31 Aug 2008), and under-25s starting university or residential further-education accommodation for the first time this autumn — including international students.
The course is two doses, given at least 28 days apart. First doses are available from late July 2026 at MediPill Pharmacies.
Either wait for the NHS to contact you — by NHS App, text, email or letter — or fill out our waiting list form and we'll contact you as soon as we know available dates.

A rash that does not fade under a glass.
Drowsiness, confusion or unresponsiveness.
If these symptoms appear, call 999 or NHS 111 immediately. For full clinical guidance see nhs.uk, or speak to any MediPill pharmacist.
