PATIENTS over the age of 65 are being encouraged to attend community flu clinics.

The annual clinics are being arranged by the three Knutsford general practices.

The first is being held at Shaw Heath Social Club, Mobberley Road, WA16 8JF on Tuesday, September 24 between 9am and 3pm.

The second session is at Egerton Sports Club, Mereheath Lane, WA16 6SL on Thursday, September 26 between 9am and 3pm.

Both clinics are for patients over the age of 65 only.

There is ample parking at both venues, and details of further clinics will be released shortly for patients over 18 years old.

Egerton Sports Club is the last building on the left leaving Knutsford. In the past some members of the public wanting to attend a flu clinic have mistakenly gone to Knutsford Tennis Club.
