I have just received a calorific daily intake of 775 caories. I am 14st, 6ft and surely this cannot be accurate. Please advise me on this?

775 calories would be the correct intake for starvation, where did you get that info from? Do a search on here for caloric intake and I'm sure you'll find some posts that'll help you out.

There's a post on the nutrition board about calorie intake that's really good. It has equations that factor in height, weight and age.

Try using the nutrition planner on the FT site.
Sounds like you got the wrong info for sure. maybe they forgot to put the 1 in front of the 7.

Good luck
