Olympic medallists, Alistair and Jonathan Brownlee, have joined forces with Team GB partners Aldi to support the supermarket chain's Get Set to Eat Fresh, an educational programme aiming to reach 1.2 million young people by 2020.
The initiative looks to educate 5-14 year-olds nationwide about fresh, healthy food and the skills required to cook for themselves.
Aldi will be supporting the Brownlee brothers all the way to Tokyo 2020. As inspiration to many young people throughout the UK Alistair and Jonny are perfect ambassadors to promote the benefits of eating healthy.

Bill Sweeney, CEO of the British Olympic Association said: "Our partnership with Aldi has been a great success and their commitment to the Team GB brand has been a huge positive for us, highlighted with the continuation of the partnership to Tokyo 2020. Undoubtedly one of the great successes has been the Get Set to Eat Fresh programme.
"Aldi’s commitment to continue to grow this programme and help improve young people’s understanding, and the importance of eating healthy, fresh food is fantastic.
