Not trying to be cheeky but do NHS actually provide these injections for travel holidays?

It used to be a postcode lottery depending on your GP.
But as with everything the cut backs have made a huge difference.
It does seem counter intuitive to give people free vaccinations if they can afford to travel overseas, but there will always be foolish people who take the risk and then expect the NHS to pick up the pieces.
 
@kingrollo, beautiful country and the mountains are magnificent. Never got to Base camp but love the people and place. Always aspired to see Base Camp and Namche Bazaar but while I was there 2 Americans hikers got hospitalised due to altitude sickness and had no time to do the proper stepped process to get there.

I am sure your son will treasure the experience.
