Get your COVID vaccination at Caxton Pharmacy on Widmore Road, in the heart of Bromley town centre. Private appointments from £99, with no NHS eligibility criteria and no waiting list.
The NHS autumn and winter COVID-19 programme runs from 1 October 2026 to 31 January 2027, and is targeted at a small group of people at the highest risk of serious illness.
If that is you, you do not need to pay. Book through the NHS App, the NHS website or by calling 119.
If you are not in one of those groups there is no free NHS COVID vaccination available to you this winter — including if you are aged 65 to 74, or have a long-term condition that used to make you eligible.
Some destinations, cruise lines and tour operators still ask for recent COVID vaccination.
Frontline staff who want ongoing protection but no longer qualify on the NHS.
Outside the current NHS groups, but still at raised risk over winter.
Reducing the chance of bringing an infection home to a family member at higher risk.
A wedding, a family gathering, an exam period or a trip you cannot afford to miss.
It has been six months or more since your last dose and you would rather be protected.
No consultation fee, no booking fee, nothing to pay online. You pay at your appointment.
No NHS eligibility criteria and no waiting list. Book a time that suits you and we will see you in our private consultation room in the heart of Bromley.
We do not advertise specific vaccines. Your pharmacist will discuss which vaccination is appropriate for you, based on current UK guidance, your vaccination history and your circumstances.
The NHS cannot add a private COVID vaccination to your NHS App. We give you a written record from the pharmacy — that is your evidence for travel or an employer.
Three ways to book. Whichever you choose, payment is taken at the appointment.
Booking for more than one person? You can book family members at the same time — each person needs their own consultation, so please book a slot for each of them.
Your pharmacist goes through your health, your medicines and your vaccination history to confirm the vaccination is suitable. Around 10 minutes.
A single injection into your upper arm. Most people find it quick and straightforward.
We ask you to stay for a short period afterwards so we can check you are feeling well before you leave.
You leave with written confirmation of your vaccination and aftercare advice.
UK guidance is that a COVID vaccination is usually given no earlier than around six months after your last dose. If it has been less than that, speak to us before booking and we will advise.
What most people feel afterwards, how to manage it, and who should speak to us first.
These usually settle within a day or two. They are a normal sign that your immune system is responding.
Rest, drink plenty of fluids, and take paracetamol if you need it, following the dosage on the pack. Ask us if you are unsure whether paracetamol is suitable alongside your other medicines.
Serious reactions are very rare. Our pharmacist is trained in managing them and we keep the appropriate emergency equipment on site. If you have ever had a severe allergic reaction to a vaccine, tell us before you book.
If you are pregnant, immunosuppressed, currently unwell with a fever, or have had a severe reaction to a previous dose, please call us on 020 8460 0377 before booking so we can advise you properly.

UK guidance is usually around six months. If you are unsure when your last dose was, we can talk it through at your consultation.
No. The NHS cannot record privately administered COVID vaccinations. We will give you written confirmation from the pharmacy to use as evidence instead.
In most cases, yes. Let us know when you book so we can allow enough time.
