Questions from Ravenglass brands
Which labelling rules apply to supplements sold from Ravenglass?
Ravenglass is in England, so the Food Supplements (England) Regulations 2003 apply, alongside the general food information rules. Health claims have to come from the GB nutrition and health claims register.
Is this the same as Trading Standards advice?
No. Trading Standards for Cumbria enforce labelling law; we give an independent practical check before you print.
Can you check a label that’s already printed?
We’ll still check them. If we find problems, we’ll tell you what must change now and what can wait for the next run.
How long does a check take?
We’ll tell you the turnaround when you send your artwork.
Who checks supplement labels in Cumbria?
Supplement labelling is enforced by the local council’s trading standards or environmental health team for Cumbria, overseen nationally by the Food Standards Agency. For advice councils must respect, consider a Primary Authority partnership with a council.
What the check covers for Ravenglass 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, not just our own. This is a practical check rather than legal advice. If you need advice councils must respect, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step.
