On 1 February 2022 a new national marketing campaign was launched with the aim of increasing awareness and driving uptake of both doses of the MMR vaccine in children under the age of five years old.
NHS England and NHS Improvement are implementing an MMR campaign from March 2022 to increase coverage of the MMR vaccine in the routine childhood programme. This will include a central call and recall for children aged between one and six years old who have been identified as not being up to date for their MMR vaccine for their age.
