Are you pregnant or have children under age 5? You could be eligible for a chip and pin card to use in any food shop/market towards buying healthy food, milk and formula. Free funds are added every 4 weeks!
Apply online, or by phone or email. Click link in the comments to check eligibility and how to apply. To help approval, ensure your family's names are typed as they appear in your other benefit awards.
Once you have your card you can show this at our North Somerset Family Hubs (Children's Centres), to claim free vitamins: child (0-4) vitamins drops and adult perinatal tablets. Also available in Pill and Weston libraries.
If you are already on the scheme, and have recently had a baby, do ensure you update Healthy Start with your baby's details - so you get more funds added to your food card , to help your little ones have the best start in life.
