Healthy Start Winchester

The NHS Healthy Start is a means-tested scheme for people who are either pregnant or have children under the age of 4, to help purchase fruit, veg, pulses and milk. The vouchers are worth £900 if all the vouchers are claimed until the child is 4, so worth the effort to be claimed (the vouchers increase in value from Apr 21).
Information on eligibility can be found at https://www.healthystart.nhs.uk/ but we have also created a local Facebook page Healthy-Start-Winchester to update individuals and organisations about changes and local updates, and allow people to message us about issues so that we can investigate on their behalf.
The scheme recently removed the need for a health professional to sign the application form (score through this box when you print), but a hard copy form is still required. If you don't have access to a printer at home, you can collect a copy of the application form from the locations below:

We are always looking for additional organisations to hold printed copies of the application forms. If you would like a bundle of forms and pre addressed envelopes, please contact us via healthystartwinchester@gmail.com.
We can also supply posters (for when people can meet face to face) and we can arrange presentations to groups. In the meantime, if you'd like a quick presentation on the scheme and how you can help promote it, please ask and one can be arranged (virtually at the moment).
