Improving Children’s Nutrition in the UK

We provide healthy supplemental food, free of charge, to children at nutritional risk.

Vitamin Angels UK is proud to partner with National Day Nurseries Association (NDNA) who, with the support of eighteen participating nurseries, are helping 1,600 children from low-income families have access to healthy and nutritious foods each day.

Having access to vital nutrients is crucial to development and a healthy immune system, especially in the first five years of a child’s life. Every week, each of the participating nurseries receive deliveries of self-selected fruits, vegetables, and protein-rich foods in packets that are designed to contribute to a quality diet.

Everyone, everywhere, is entitled to a healthy start to life, which is why, at Vitamin Angels UK, we dedicate our efforts to improving nutrition during early childhood.

Proper nutrition in this critical period lays the foundation for optimal growth and development. We are proud to collaborate with the National Day Nurseries Association (NDNA) to serve children from low-income communities who are at nutritional risk. Through our partnership, we provide self-selected fruits, vegetables, and protein-rich foods to eighteen participating nurseries every week. This offering contributes to a balanced diet by enhancing existing nutrition services and reducing instances of inadequate and excessive nutrient intake.
