Meningococcal B (MenB) time limited vaccination offer letter

The UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) and NHS England have issued a new letter giving additional detail about the time‑limited Meningococcal B (MenB) vaccination offer.

This update follows last week’s announcement from the Department of Health and Social Care and NHS England about launching a new community pharmacy service that will deliver a one‑off MenB vaccination programme.

The letter outlines the key elements of the programme and includes an annex containing clinical guidance and broader advice to support the rollout of MenB vaccinations. It also notes that more operational guidance for pharmacy owners will be released soon for those interested in offering the Advanced Service. NHS England is also preparing to publish the full service specification.

The letter and annex provide the official information on the MenB time‑limited vaccination offer, which you can download here.
