Tesco invites kids to board meetings

Tesco is forming a Kids' Board, comprised of six children aged between nine and 12, which will help to shape the future of the company's Schools & Clubs scheme.

Tesco is searching for children with entrepreneurial skills, who are asked to apply via an online application.

Lucy Neville-Rolfe, executive director at Tesco, said: "Children are full of good ideas, so we thought they should have a chance to make some of them happen. And what better way than giving them the opportunity to shape our hugely popular Tesco for Schools & Clubs programme and, in the process, also win a prize for their school or club?"

The chosen children will attend board meetings at Tesco's headquarters. Their input will influence the future of the Tesco for Schools & Clubs programme.

They will also win 10,000 Tesco for Schools & Clubs vouchers for their school or club, a laptop, and a digital camera.

Those who think their children are precocious enough can by 20 May. Last year, Tesco donated equipment worth £9.3m through the Schools & Clubs scheme.
