If you’re planning to travel abroad over Christmas or the New Year, this is the time to make sure your travel vaccinations are up to date. Many people book festive holidays at short notice, but some vaccines need time to work, so checking your requirements early can make a real difference. At Harmony Travel Clinic at Murrays Chemist, 172 Kenton Road, Harrow, HA3 8BL, we provide quick access to essential travel vaccinations and reliable advice to help you prepare safely for your winter break.
Christmas and early-January holidays often include destinations such as Dubai, Thailand, India, the Caribbean, Kenya, Tanzania and other parts of Africa and Asia. Each location carries its own health considerations. Depending on your itinerary, vaccines such as Hepatitis A, Typhoid, Tetanus/Diphtheria/Polio, Yellow Fever and Meningitis ACWY may be recommended. For certain trips — especially safaris, rural stays, outdoor activities or animal encounters — vaccines like Rabies or Hepatitis B may also be appropriate, always following a full clinical assessment.
We understand that festive holidays can be hectic, and not everyone has weeks to prepare. Even if your departure date is close, we can still help. Our HA3 travel clinic offers walk-in appointments whenever possible, along with extended availability during the festive period to support families, students and professionals who need last-minute travel health advice. We also provide antimalarial medication, information on avoiding insect bites, and practical tips for staying well while travelling.
Airports are particularly busy at this time of year, and long-haul journeys can take a toll on your energy and immune system. Preparing your health before you go is just as important as sorting your luggage or travel documents. A short visit to the clinic can help ensure you have the right protection and peace of mind for your holiday.
Whether you’re escaping for some winter sun, visiting family overseas or exploring somewhere new, we’re here to help you travel safely and confidently.
Visit Harmony Travel Clinic at Murrays Chemist, 172 Kenton Road, Harrow, HA3 8BL, for last-minute Christmas and New Year travel vaccinations.
