Label rules that apply in Whalley Banks
Any food supplement sold from Whalley Banks must meet the Food Supplements (England) Regulations 2003, under the oversight of the Food Standards Agency. In Lancashire, food labelling is enforced by the council’s trading standards or environmental health team.
One label works across England, Scotland and Wales, because the supplement rules match across Great Britain.
A good first step is our label requirements checklist, and then check your health claims, %NRV figures and nutrient guides.

What the check covers for Whalley Banks 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.

FAQs for Whalley Banks
Is your check the same as a Trading Standards check?
No. Trading Standards for Lancashire enforce labelling law; we give an independent practical check before you print.
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.
Which labelling rules apply to supplements sold from Whalley Banks?
Whalley Banks is in England, so the Food Supplements (England) Regulations 2003 apply, together with the general food information rules. Health claims have to come from the GB nutrition and health claims register.
What does the report look like?
A written, point-by-point report, with each item marked fine, advised or must fix, plus suggested wording.
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 claims must come from the EU register and the address must work for that market. Let us know where your products go and we’ll cover both.
