Healthy  Start Vitamins

Vitamins are essential nutrients that you body needs in small amounts so that it can work properly.

Even though you can get lots of vitamins from a healthy balanced diet, you still might not get everything you need at certain times in your life – like when you’re pregnant, a new mom or a small child.   So UK Health Departments recommend that at these times you should take a supplement containing specific vitamins to help make sure you get everything you need.

How do I get Healthy Start vitamins?

Pregnant women, women with a baby under one and children from six months to four years who receive Healthy Start vouchers can also get Health Start vitamins.  There is a green coupon on every second voucher letter that you’l l need to show to get your free vitamins.  Just produce this at Greenfield Children’s  Centre and you will receive your vitamins.
