If you care for someone, we can support you in your caring role.

Flu and Covid-19 vaccinations for unpaid carers

Did you know that unpaid carers are eligible for flu and COVID-19 vaccines this winter? Vaccination is one of the safest and most effective ways of preventing you and those you care for from getting seriously ill.

If you haven’t had an invitation to be vaccinated against flu and/or COVID-19, you’ll find information about how to get a vaccination on the Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board website (external website).
