EWS | Increasing childhood immunisation rates

This webinar will provide GPs and GP registrars with an overview of the current landscape and challenges surrounding childhood vaccinations in England, while offering practical, cost-effective strategies to increase immunisation uptake, particularly in areas of high health deprivation. Drawing on real-life examples from NHS England fellowship programmes, it will showcase innovative initiatives—such as baby wellness events in local shopping centres and collaborations with local authorities—that have successfully boosted vaccination rates while minimising the impact on practice resources. Attendees will gain inspiration, share ideas, and explore creative approaches to making immunisation services more accessible for paediatric populations, with insights they can adapt to their own practice.
