Co-op stores in Lincolnshire are giving free fruit to children every day this summer in a bid to help them eat more healthily.
The new scheme is available to junior members of the Lincolnshire Co-op between the ages of five to 15.
Once signed up, junior members can claim a snack bag of Fruit Discovery pineapple or watermelon ‘fingers’, or an apple, banana, orange or pear every day.
The offer is valid from 22 July to 5 September 2016 in Co-op stores across Lincolnshire.
