Healthy start card

If you’re more than 10 weeks pregnant or have a child under 4, you may be entitled to get help to buy healthy food and milk.

If you are on a low income or are receiving certain benefits you may qualify for the Healthy Start card.

The card is topped up once a month with a Healthy Start item allowance.  This can then be used in any shops, markets and food outlets that accept Mastercard.
