Gap Year Vaccines

Know which vaccinations you need? Book your vaccinations with your local Pharmacy!

Planning a gap year or an adventure trip abroad? Whether you’re backpacking through Asia, volunteering in rural Africa, or exploring South America on a shoestring, it’s worth taking a moment to think about your health before you go.

Backpacking is freedom, but also risk

When you’re staying in hostels, eating street food, or hiking through remote areas, your body is exposed to things it may not be ready for. What starts as a scratch or upset stomach could become something that ruins your trip, costs you thousands, or worse.

You may only need one jab. But it might be the one that protects everything

Vaccines like hepatitis A, typhoid, or rabies are not just for extreme travellers. They are often recommended for anyone going off the beaten path, especially where clean water, good hygiene, or access to medical care cannot be guaranteed. Even if the chances seem low, the consequences can be serious.

Start early, travel smarter

Some vaccines take a few weeks or several doses to fully protect you. If you’re heading off soon, it is best to plan ahead. Booking a travel consultation is quick and gives you clarity on what is recommended for your trip.

Think of it as part of your prep

You’ve packed your bag, booked your hostels, and mapped out the route. Just do not leave your health to chance. A short consultation now could save you a lot of regret later.
