About BMI Calculator NHS

Free NHS-Aligned Health Tools
Built for the UK

We're on a mission to make NHS-standard BMI and health calculations accessible to every UK adult and family — completely free, with no registration required.

Our Mission

BMI Calculator NHS was created with a simple but important goal: to give every person in the UK free, instant access to NHS-aligned health calculation tools — without having to navigate complex NHS websites, download apps, or create accounts.

We believe that understanding your BMI, your healthy weight range, and your child's growth percentile are fundamental health literacy tools. They help people have more informed conversations with their GP, set realistic health goals, and monitor their family's wellbeing over time.

All of our tools — from the Visual BMI Calculator to the Child Growth Chart Calculator UK — are built around current NHS guidelines, are completely free to use, and process all health data locally in your browser. We never store your health information.

🆓
Free for Everyone
Every tool on our website is and always will be completely free to use. No sign-ups, no subscriptions, no hidden fees. We believe access to basic health information tools should not be a privilege.
