Public Health is conscious that reports of new meningitis cases in the UK may be worrying for parents with children studying away, and so has issued some advice for islanders, particularly those at university, to consider.
For updated FAQs, symptoms to watch for, and reliable information, please visit gov.gg/Kentmeningitis
The UK Health Security Agency, leading the response, advises that the overall risk to the wider public remains low, and has confirmed that at present, all known cases are in Kent.
Guernsey students at the University of Kent who plan to return home early for Easter are asked to contact Public Health at publichealth@gov.gg for support. There’s sufficient stock of antibiotics and the Meningitis B (MenB) vaccine for those eligible students returning to Guernsey.

We are aware of understandable concern following reports of a recent meningitis outbreak in Kent.
We’d like to reassure patients locally and clarify current guidance around the MenB vaccine.
WHO IS ELIGIBLE?
In Guernsey, we follow UK national immunisation guidance.
The MenB vaccine is routinely offered to infants at:
• 8 weeks
• 12 weeks
• 1 year
Children aged 2 years and under are the main group eligible for routine vaccination.
WHY NOT OLDER CHILDREN & ADULTS?
• The programme was introduced in 2015 for infants
• Older children, teenagers and adults are not routinely eligible
• The overall risk to the general population remains low
WHAT HAPPENS IN AN OUTBREAK?
Guidance supports a targeted approach:
• Vaccination is not offered to everyone
• High-risk groups (e.g. close contacts) may be offered vaccination and/or antibiotics
In Guernsey, Public Health will contact individuals directly where needed — including advising on any case-by-case adult booster doses if clinically indicated.
SYMPTOMS TO WATCH FOR
Seek urgent medical attention if you or your child develop:
• Fever
• Severe headache
• Neck stiffness
• Sensitivity to light
• Vomiting
• A rash that does not fade when pressed
OUR ADVICE
• Ensure your child is up to date with routine vaccinations
• Be aware of symptoms and seek help early
• Follow any direct advice from Guernsey Public Health if contacted
If you have concerns or would like to check vaccination eligibility, please contact the practice — we’re happy to help.

❤️ It’s Pulse Day! ❤️
Today we’re encouraging everyone to take a moment to check your pulse.
An irregular pulse can be a sign of heart rhythm problems such as Atrial Fibrillation (AF). AF often has no symptoms, but it can increase your risk of stroke if left untreated. The good news? It’s easy to check, and treatment is very effective.
🖐️ To check your pulse:
• Sit down and relax
• Place two fingers on the inside of your wrist
• Count the beats for 30 seconds
• Is it regular? Or irregular and uneven?
If it feels irregular, don’t panic but do book an appointment with your GP to get it checked. If you're eligible you could also join our risk detection programme.
It only takes 30 seconds. It could make a lifetime of difference.
