    I have been trying to get signed up all day, keep getting errors off the site. Some more information:
    The food voucher scheme is currently limited to 5 million voucher books which will provide money off various healthy food items. To get a voucher book you will need to go to the Change4Life website and complete the Great Swapathon Questionnaire, and then hopefully receive a voucher book.
    Through the Great Swapathon, families can get access to:
    a £50 book of vouchers for money off healthier foods and activities;
    recipes for healthier alternatives to favourite snacks;
    recipes for family options for each meal time; and
    nutritional and activity advice.

    Read more: motleyhealth.com/news/change-for-life-vouchers-encourage-healthy-eating (I cannot post links so you will have to copy and paste)

    So looks like more than just Asda are providing discounts.

    Has anyone got signed up yet?
  • So if I dont shop at Asda, read News of the World, or claim every benefit going, I can probably assume I am unlikely to qualify !

    Yet again the people who work hard to survive get scr*wed, thanks again...

    My new years resolution, give up work for a pay rise :rotfl:

    I registered yesterday and saw nothing on the site about the vouchers or how to get them. But I am now advised to walk around while chatting on the phone :D

    Site let me register but stopped when I was half way through questionaire. Has it crashed? Didn't they realise this would be popular? Another government failure!

  • BBC link seems to be providing misleading info about the voucher.

    According to DoH,4 million £50 vouchers are available from NewsOfTheWorld and Asda stores.


    I've signed up the Change4Life's Great Swapathon. There's no mention about £50 voucher at all on The Great Swapathon web site.

    I managed to get a bit further last night before it crashed again. Annoying. If I try to register again it says my email address is already registered, but if I try to log in or request a new password it says it does not know my email address. So I appear to be stuck out of the loop. Could really do with some of those vouchers. But maybe it is not as simple as just registering anyway?

    Pointless exercise. Registered early yesterday morning before the site crashed. Did the questionnaire. Went through all the screens.

    Nothing anywhere to be seen about vouchers.
