Why Travel Vaccinations Are So Important
Before travelling internationally, it is essential to understand that many destinations carry health risks that are uncommon in the UK. For example, certain infections spread through contaminated food or water, while others are transmitted via mosquito bites or animal contact. Therefore, arranging travel vaccinations in Bourne End well in advance of departure significantly reduces your risk.
In many cases, vaccinations are not only recommended but legally required. For instance:
-
Yellow Fever vaccination is mandatory for entry into several countries in Africa and South America.
-
Hepatitis A and Typhoid are common in regions with lower sanitation standards.
-
Rabies may be recommended for long stays or rural travel.
-
Malaria prophylaxis (anti-malarial tablets) is essential in high-risk areas.
Because different destinations carry different risks, personalised advice is always important.
Because travel health risks vary by destination, it is always advisable to check official country-specific recommendations before travelling. You can review up-to-date guidance for your destination on the official TravelHealthPro website, which provides detailed vaccination and malaria advice for each country. We are also happy to review this information with you during your travel vaccination consultation in Bourne End.

Licensed Yellow Fever Centre in Bourne End
One of the key advantages of choosing us for travel vaccinations in Bourne End is that we are a licensed Yellow Fever Vaccination Centre. This means we are officially authorised to administer the Yellow Fever vaccine and issue the internationally recognised Yellow Fever certificate.
Notably, the certificate becomes valid 10 days after vaccination. Therefore, early booking is strongly advised. During your appointment, we will assess your destination requirements and ensure you receive the appropriate documentation for entry.
For travellers from Marlow, Beaconsfield or High Wycombe, having a licensed Yellow Fever Centre in Bourne End provides convenient local access without needing to travel further afield.

Full Range of Travel Vaccinations Available
At Bourne End Pharmacy, we provide a comprehensive selection of travel vaccines tailored to your itinerary.
Common Travel Vaccines
We offer protection against:
-
Hepatitis A
-
Hepatitis B
-
Typhoid (oral and injection options)
-
Cholera
-
Rabies
-
Tetanus, Diphtheria and Polio boosters
However, beyond the standard vaccinations, we also provide access to newer and emerging vaccines.
Specialist and Newer Vaccinations
Importantly, we offer:
-
Dengue vaccine (for eligible travellers)
-
Chikungunya vaccine (for affected regions)
Both dengue and chikungunya are mosquito-borne viral infections increasingly seen in tropical and subtropical areas. As global travel expands, so too does exposure risk. Consequently, discussing these options during your travel vaccination consultation in Bourne End ensures comprehensive protection.
Anti-Malarial Tablets and Prophylaxis
In addition to travel vaccinations in Bourne End, we also provide anti-malarial tablets and malaria prophylaxis advice for travellers visiting malaria-risk regions. Because malaria can be severe and potentially life-threatening, prevention is critical.
During your consultation, we will:
-
Review your travel itinerary
-
Assess your medical history
-
Recommend the most suitable anti-malarial medication
-
Provide advice on mosquito bite prevention
Since some anti-malarial tablets must be started before travel and continued afterwards, planning ahead is particularly important.

Personalised Travel Health Advice
Every trip is different. For example, backpacking through Southeast Asia presents different risks compared to a safari in Africa or a short city break. Therefore, travel vaccinations in Bourne End are always delivered following a personalised consultation.
We recommend booking your appointment 6–8 weeks before travel, although we can also assist last-minute travellers where possible.
Before your appointment, you may wish to check the latest country guidance via TravelHealthPro to understand recommended and required vaccines. However, because recommendations can change and individual risk factors differ, we always advise booking a professional travel health consultation to ensure you receive tailored advice.
