If you contact the JABS website they have a long list of places they can send you. They're at jabs.org.uk.

popsycal, our DD also had her jabs (all three) at the Eltham Direct Health clinic. Very good, no problems. I understand now that there is some difficulty getting hold of certain jabs. At the time we didn't have to wait for any, it was a period of 6 week intervals. She was fine after. I am pretty sure that there are other Direct Health clincs over the country. However, when we got to the clinic there were people that had travelled as far as Scotland to get them done!!

Thanks

If any good to you Google Holborn Medical Centre. I didn't need to go to them for thimerosil-free baby jabs as my GP gave me them but I contact HMC and they were very efficient, sent forms etc.

like bluecow suggested we went to the jabs website. From there we deided to use a clinic Desumo in Worcester 01531 634650 . It is a clinic that was set up by mums. We paid £100 for measles jab and it is going to cost £80 each for the mumps and rubella. As soon as we registered they sent us a massive registration pack and some vitamins to boost our ds immune system.
I must admit it Desumo is quite away from us as we are in Essex! But it looked like a good clinic so we are travelling up for each jab!
If you have any trouble getting the list of registered clinics from the jabs website let me know because I can e-mail it to you.

Thanks

They are a complex made up by one of the doctors using research published into childrens immune systems in relation to vaccination. Desumo are producing the vitamins with a leading manufacturer. (hope this makes sense - there is so much literature I am trying to thin it down!)
They contain all sorts including vitamin B5, 3, 6, 1 and 2, folic acid, magnesium ascorbate, calcuim (the list goes on and on - if you want full ingredients let me know)
You can buy them from the clinic without having your jabs done there. They are £3.85 for 30 day supply. Not sure about how effective - if at all they are - but if you want some let me know at any time and I will send you all the details. Hope this helps x x
