Typhoid jab

My GP surgery no longer does travel advice & jabs - despite the fact that they've provided good service in the past.
My local hospital doesn't provide the service either.

NHS website states that the jabs are free at GPs' surgeries.
Not sure what to do. Any ideas please?

You could pay for them privately

I paid for mine privately at a travel clinic (Scotland). Don't think it's free on the NHS here.

It depends if your gp practice offers travel vaccines. I'm in Scotland and we got some free and had to pay for others. The ones we paid for we had to collect from a pharmacy and take to the nurse at the gp travel clinic for them to inject into us.
