Covid Vaccination for 12-15 year olds

*Letter from Trafford Community Healthcare Team for those parents/carers of students who will be 12 to 15 on the 25th November 2021*

 

Dear Parent/Carer

I am writing to inform you that we will soon be offering COVID-19 vaccinations in school. I would like to ask if you wish to give your consent for your child to receive a first dose of the vaccine.
This vaccination will be free of charge and our highest priority is making it easy for children to access one dose of the vaccine before the winter.

The main purpose of the COVID-19 school age vaccination programme is to provide protection to the children who receive the vaccine and may help to reduce transmission of COVID-19 in the wider population.

During the vaccination delivery we will maintain the range of measures we have in place to keep you safe from COVID-19.

Once we have your consent, we will schedule the vaccination appointment.

Please indicate your consent (by 10am on Thursday 4th November) by clicking on the below link and completing the easy form online. Please note forms received after this time will not be accepted.

By consenting you will be helping to play your part in reducing the risk of COVID-19 spreading.

Best wishes,


Kate Murdock
Lead Manager
Children’s Community Health Trafford
