Children across Wiltshire are being invited to design a poster to encourage people to recycle.

Aldi is holding the competition to mark Recycle Week, which runs from October 14 to 20, and is offering a £250 Aldi voucher to the winner's family.

The company's sustainability experts will judge the entries, with the top three designs being displayed at the supermarket's UK headquarters.

The competition is part of the its efforts to promote sustainable shopping habits.

Luke Emery, national sustainability director at Aldi, said: "At Aldi, we are constantly reviewing ways to reduce excess plastic and packaging, and this competition aims to educate children on the importance of recycling.

"We hope it inspires the next generation to embrace small changes that can make a big difference to the planet, and we look forward to receiving a diverse range of entries.”

The competition is also part of the Get Set to Eat Fresh programme by Aldi, Team GB, and ParalympicsGB, which aims to inspire young people aged five to 14 to develop an interest in healthy, sustainable food.

To enter, parents and teachers can submit children's A4 portrait poster designs via email to aldicompetitions@citypress.co.uk.

Entries opened on Monday, October 14, and will close on Friday, November 8.
