Service Specification, PGDs & national protocol

Combined Covid-19 and Flu Vaccinations Service Specification from 1st April 2026 – 31st March 2027

Spring 2026 Covid Vaccination PGD

Vaccine Group Direction – NHS England has authorised and published a vaccine group direction (VGD) for use in the Spring 2026 COVID-19 vaccination campaign. VGDs are a new legal route which can be used to authorise administration of vaccines. They operate in a similar way to a PGD, with pharmacists and pharmacy technicians operating as the clinician, but with the opportunity for some tasks within the process (preparation, administration and record-keeping) to be delegated to other suitably trained staff.
