Thanks

No, not on the packet. It just says that it contains calcium.

A large slice of whole meal bread = 27mg therefore a medium approximately 22mg.

Source: BDA non dairy sources of calcium - food facts.

Calcium labelling not statutory.

Thanks, 20 slices=800g
1 slice = 40g = 191.2mg

I think fortified bread such as hovis has ten times more calcium (200 mg) than ordinary bread (20mg).
