A BUDGET supermarket chain is encouraging residents of Shropshire to enter a competition to help fund their Platinum Jubilee celebrations.

Aldi's Jubilee Street Party Fund will see the supermarket give away a series of £500 vouchers to help communities up and down the country celebrate Her Majesty’s big day.

Ten lucky winners can use the vouchers to purchase food, drinks and decorations from Aldi’s Jubilee-inspired range, such as its Eton Mess Gin Liqueur and light-up, shimmering Strawberry and Mint Gin Liqueur, Specially Selected English Sparkling wines, Jubilee IPAs and Jubilee gourmet popcorn, giving them everything they need to toast the Queen’s reign.

Aldi’s Facebook page is hosting the competition, with entrants asked to tag their local community Facebook group or a friendly neighbour to be in with a chance of winning.

Richard Thornton, communications director at Aldi UK, said: “Winners of our Jubilee Street Party Fund will be given vouchers to buy all they need to celebrate this momentous occasion with their neighbours and local communities, and we encourage the streets, roads, avenues and drives of Shropshire to put their nominations forward.

“We want to make it as easy as possible for people to organise their own events and street parties and look forward to seeing how the lucky winners of our competition decide to mark the big day.”

Entries are open from now until 8am on Thursday, May 26 and T&Cs apply.

Winners will be contacted on Friday, May 27 to allow plenty of time for them to stock up on all their street party essentials.
