Vitamin Supplements

During autumn and winter, everyone is advised to take vitamin D to keep their bones and muscles healthy and to support their general health. This is particularly important if you've been indoors over the spring and summer as you may not have been getting enough vitamin D from sunlight.

If you are a part of a group that is of higher risk to Covid-19, you may be entitled to a free supply of Vitamin D supplements that you can apply for via the NHS Website.
