PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Vaccination: Ethnic Groups (25 October 2022)

We continue to work with the National Health Service to provide information on the benefits of COVID-19 and flu vaccination, targeted for specific communities where vaccination uptake is lower or has been falling. This includes information and advice via television, radio and social media and translated into 13 languages. We have also launched a nationwide communications campaign to encourage eligible members of the public to receive a COVID-19 booster and flu vaccination this autumn.

On 24 June 2021, NHS England published the COVID-19 vaccination toolkit to provide evidence-based guidance for increasing vaccination confidence and uptake within black African and black Caribbean communities. We continue to work with community and faith ambassadors and organisations to build trust within local communities.
