In excess of 200,000 households across Great Britain are missing out on free food vouchers - with an estimated worth of over £880,000 - according to an investigation conducted by consumer champions at Which?
The Government's Healthy Start scheme allows eligible parties to pick up a prepaid card offering between £4.25 and £8.50 each week - up to £34 each month - to spend on groceries.
But a low uptake with regards to the scheme means that around £45million each and every year in extra support is being lost.
