Aldi is inviting school children to compete in its nationwide competition to find a design for its latest lorries.
A part of its Get Set to Eat Fresh education programme with Team GB and ParalympicsGB, the discount grocer will be giving children ages five to 14 a chance to submit hand-drawn designs that are focused on inspiring others to eat healthy, sustainable food.
The competition, which is open for entries until 23 June, will be judged by a panel from the programme, including representatives from Aldi, as well as Team GB and ParalymicsGB athletes, Emily Campbell and Chris Skelley.
