Kate Needham, market director at Burton’s Biscuit Co, said: “This generation of kids is the least active ever. It is our mission to change that with the return of our ‘Minis get moving’ on-pack promotion which highlights our ongoing commitment to promote the role of portion-controlled snacks as part of a healthy balanced diet and active lifestyle, helping families to get active in fun and accessible ways.

“Research shows children spend just four hours a week outside and are even less active during the school holidays. This would only have been exacerbated by the closure of schools during lockdown, highlighting the need to encourage families to now get out and get active.

“At less than 100 calories a bag, we know our Minis range appeals to parents in search of a permissible and convenient treat for the lunchbox or as an on-the-go snack. Last year the Minis get moving campaign saw over 3.5 million promotional packs sold, resulting in a 43.8% increase in penetration, while enabling children to have fun and be active.”
