Health in Pregnancy Grant

Have any of you claimed this yet? If so where did you get your form from? I went to my local Job Centre plus today and the woman didn't know what I was talking about. She gave me info about £500 Sure start maternity grant but that wasn't the one I was after, I mean the £190 form that the midwife has to sign.
Any help would be great thanks.

The midwife will issue this form when you see her around the 25week mark, if she doesn't then ask for it as she will sign it when it is issued

Hi, health advice from the midwife is as simple as the checklist they run down at your booking appointment so as long as you have seen your midwife or GP about your current pregnancy the advice thing isnt an issue!

I phoned my midwife who dropped the form off to me so just waiting on the money now apparently it goes straight into your account no letter or anything.

Typical huh Will be handy for some bits once baby has arrived!

My money just appeared in the bank and i got the letter over a week later, health advice also applies for being given iron tablets

Thanks ladies, I've got midwife thursday so I'll ask her then. I'm 33 weeks now so I more than qualify, I didn't realise she had them as I'd have presumed she'd have given it to me routinely by now if she has them.

I went on to either www.dwp.gov.uk or www.direct.co.uk put in health start vouchers (assuming thats what you mean??)

I handed in my sure start maternity grant thing to the jobcentre yesterday and she said to me that "we dont take it but i'll pass it on for you".... one thing then if "they" dont take it who does??

I got the £190 one put into my bank account on thursday there. That was nearly four weeks ago. I hadnt heard so i looked in my bank account on the thursday to see if it had been put in..just aswell i did cos i was gonna phone them yesterday to enquire about it. Glad i checked though or i woulda looked awffy stupid on the phone...
