While the scorching weather is a welcome relief from what has been described as the ‘wettest summer on record’, research by skin care charities shows that 67% of people find the cost of SPF too high, saying they would use it more if it was 20% cheaper. Data also shows that 1 in 10 people are not using sunscreen because it’s too expensive.

In a bid to alleviate cost concerns and protect skin against UV rays, Aldi is giving 1,000 outdoor workers a £5 voucher to spend on award-winning lotion including its Lacura Moisturising SPF30 Lotion (£2.49, 200ml), recently awarded a ‘Great Value’ accreditation by consumer champion, Which? – beating other brands costing three times as much.

Aldi’s £2.49 lotion was praised by Natalie Hitchins, Which? Head of Home Products and Services, for being a ‘top quality sunscreen’ available ‘at a time when shoppers need affordable options.’

With Aldi’s five-star UVA-rated sun care range starting from just £1.35, winners will be able to choose from the cream of the crop. All outdoor workers need to do is email [email protected] with their name and job description.

Julie Ashfield, Managing Director of Buying at Aldi UK, says: “High quality sun care products should be a right, not a privilege, which is why we’re proud to offer quality SPF products at unbeatable prices.

“It’s great to see the sun is finally making an appearance but with that comes a need to keep our skin safe. We hope this gesture will bring a smile to the brilliant British outside workforce, while protecting against harmful UV rays.”
