Supplement label compliance check in Lower Ascott
Send us your label and we’ll tell you, in writing, what must change before it goes on sale from Lower Ascott.
What the check covers for Lower Ascott brands
Send your artwork or draft copy. We review it against the Food Supplements (England) Regulations 2003, the food information rules and the GB nutrition and health claims register, and send back a written report with every point marked as fine, advised or must fix. We check labels designed and printed anywhere, including ones from other printers. This is a practical check rather than legal advice. If you need advice councils must respect, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step.

Questions from Lower Ascott brands
What does the report look like?
A written report, with each item marked as fine, advised or must fix, plus suggested wording.
Who enforces food labelling in Central Bedfordshire?
Food labelling is enforced by the local council’s trading standards or environmental health team for Central Bedfordshire, overseen nationally by the Food Standards Agency. For advice councils must respect, consider a Primary Authority partnership with a council.
Do you only work with Lower Ascott businesses?
No. We work online and deliver across the UK, so it makes no difference where you’re based. Lower Ascott deliveries go out by tracked courier to LU7.
What if I sell in Northern Ireland too?
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.
Can you check a label that’s already printed?
We can still check them. If we find problems, we’ll tell you what must change now and what can wait for the next run.
