Summary

The goal of this observational study is to learn if tube-fed children and young people (age 3-15 years) find Wilbo's Blends+ (a new nutritionally complete enteral formula containing real food ingredients) acceptable, tolerable and easy to use. The main question it aims to answer is:

Is Wilbo's Blends+ acceptable when included in the feeding plan of tube-fed children and young people (age 3-15 years)

Participants will:

Take Wilbo's Blend+ for a 7 day period as part of their feeding plan Complete questionnaires about their gastrointestinal symptoms

Wilbo's Blends+

A new feeding plan will be developed by the study dietitians. Participants will be transitioned from their current enteral feeding plan to incorporate Wilbo's Blends+. In this new plan Wilbo's Blends+ can provide up to 100% but not lower than 30% of their total daily calorie requirements depending on participant's individual clinical needs, as assessed by the study dietitian. All participants will be on at least 30% Wilbo's Blends+ for at least 7 days. If required clinically there is the option to transition participants onto Wilbo's Blends+ over 1-6 days, for children who are deemed particularly sensitive to change in their feeding plan. Participants or their families/carers will complete an electronic workbook consisting of: * GI tolerance records for 7 days whilst receiving Wilbo's Blends+ * Compliance records for 7 days whilst receiving Wilbo's Blends+ * Ease of use and palatability questionnaire at the end of the study intervention (after last administration of Wilbo's Blends+
