What is Healthy Start?

With Healthy Start, you get free vouchers every week to spend on milk, plain fresh and frozen fruit and vegetables, and infant formula milk. You can also get free vitamins.

Pregnant or have children under the age of four? You could qualify if you're on benefits, or if you're pregnant and under 18.

Applying for Healthy Start is easy. If you already have an application leaflet just fill out the form inside, ask your midwife or health visitor to sign it and send it to us using the freepost envelope attached. If you don't have an application form you can find one here. We use information from your tax credits and benefits claims to check you qualify so make sure all your details (including your address) are up to date with Tax Credits and JobCentre Plus as this will help us process your application quickly.
