Parents across Hammersmith and Fulham are being urged to make sure their children have had the MMR vaccine.

‘Back to school’ pop-up clinics are taking place across the borough.

Children need two doses of the vaccine which protects against measles, mumps and rubella.

The first dose is given at 12 to 15 months, and the second dose at 3 to 4 years of age, which is called the “pre-school” booster.
