My little son needs a flu jab but the local medical centre won't provide one, for different not-health related reasons. I have called through all major ED pharmacies, as recommended by the medical centre, but no one sells and provides private flu jabs. Does anyone know where I can get this in and around East Dulwich?

thanks

Pharmacies won't do under 16s in general, even though there's no reason to think it's unsafe and it's national policy in some countries. Various private clinics in central London will do them - e.g. we were for various reasons keen for all the family to have a jab and got it done at Baker St Medical Centre (http://www.bakerstreet.org.uk/). Not cheap and a hassle obviously, but under ?20, flexible about appointment times and happy with any age.

Hi minder, my son has a history of recurring chest infections and underwent several tests at King's last winter. No underlying condition such as asthma was found. The doctors said that if these infections continue this winter, they will put him on antibiotics during the whole winter. I consulted another recommended GP close to my home town Vienna who has treated children with similar conditions successfully. She recommended for my son to get a flu jab, ideally before we are off to Vienna at Christmas. After that she will start treating him to boost his immune system.

    • Hi Sue, they were not local solicitors. Andrea’s was based in Wales and the other firms involved were large nationwide conveyancing companies (rather than conventional high street solicitors). I’m happy to advise clients and buyers privately on what I believe to be their shortcomings but I don’t think doing so in public on the forum would be appropriate, particularly as they are not locally based. My general advice would always be to steer clear of the big conveyancing companies as they are, in my experience, notoriously difficult to contact when the need arises and the case handler is often not a fully qualified solicitor and so issues have to be referred upwards to “technical teams” internally, which was part of the problem in Andrea’s chain.

    • A slightly vulnerable but hopeful post… Hi everyone, I’m a guy in my mid-thirties who’s recently moved back to London and East Dulwich (I previously lived here for many years before, so I know the area well). But if I’m honest, I’ve found the return a little tough. Most of my close friends have moved out of London to start families — totally understandable — but it’s left me feeling a bit adrift and not quite sure how to make new connections again. Work has taken up a huge chunk of my life in recent years, and I’ve definitely let hobbies, interests and a proper social life fall by the wayside. I feel like I went from a fun social life in my 20’s to suddenly blinking and realising things had gone a bit er…quiet. So, I’m trying to redress the balance a bit — mainly so myself and my partner don’t murder each other 😂, and just to meet some new local faces. I was wondering: is anyone else in a similar boat? And would there be any interest in starting a relaxed, low-key local social group? Could be a casual pub meet, sports, park hangouts, live comedy nights — open to ideas!  I’m happy to do the organising/admin side of things — just wanted to put it out there and see if there’s any appetite. I’ll gauge interest and take it from there.  If you’d prefer not to reply publicly, feel free to drop me a DM.  Cheers all! 👋
