Seasonal Vaccination Service
Off-Site Vaccinations
If you’re planning to offer any off-site vaccinations including care homes during the Autumn/Winter 26 campaign you must request permission from the NHS Regional Team using this form.
You must wait until you have received confirmation before carrying out any off-site vaccinations or you may not be paid.
- If you have any problems completing the form contact the RVOC team - england.eoe-vacprg@nhs.net
Record a Vaccination Service (RAVS)
From 1st September 2026 all NHS vaccinations will need to be recorded using RAVS, either accessing the service directly or via an approved pharmacy IT system. Either way you will require a RAVs log in.
You should contact your current IT system provider to request an update on this integration work and to confirm if their current system will support integration with RAVS for the coming season or whether use of RAVS as a standalone system will be required.
Pharmacy owners without access to RAVS can request access through the following link.
If you have any technical difficulties with using or accessing RAVS, contact the RAVS support team.
