How to apply

Applications for a Best Start Foods grant should be made to Social Security Scotland and can be made online, on the telephone or via paper application form. A person with no recourse to public funds will need to provide evidence of their immigration status, their income or how they are being supported, and their child’s birth certificate or ID. People seeking asylum may need to seek advice from Migrant Help about whether this would affect the amount of asylum support they receive.

Please see the Scottish government’s website for more information on applying for Best Start Foods.
