Barrow Nook questions
Which labelling rules apply to supplements sold from Barrow Nook?
Barrow Nook is in England, so the Food Supplements (England) Regulations 2003 apply, as well as the general food information rules. Health claims have to come from the GB nutrition and health claims register.
Who checks supplement labels in Lancashire?
Food labelling is enforced by the local council’s trading standards or environmental health team for Lancashire, with national oversight from the Food Standards Agency. If you want assured advice, consider a Primary Authority partnership with a council.
What if my labels are already printed?
We’ll still check them. If we find problems, we’ll tell you which are urgent and which can wait for your next print run.
Do I need to be based in Barrow Nook to order?
No. We work online and deliver across the UK, so it makes no difference where you’re based. Barrow Nook orders go out by tracked courier to L39.
Do you check labels for Northern Ireland as well as Great Britain?
We can check for both. EU food law applies in Northern Ireland, so health claims must be on the EU register and the address must work for that market. Let us know where your products go and we’ll check the label for each market.
What the check covers for Barrow Nook brands

We check labels designed and printed anywhere, including ones from other printers. It’s a practical review, not legal advice. If you need advice councils must respect, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step.
