The winner of the million tonnes poster competition, Jessica Milstead of Fynamore Primary School, Calne, recently saw how her design has transformed a lorry into a mobile advert for recycling in Wiltshire.
There was an amazing response to the competition, launched in August 2011, with nearly 300 entries received from school children across Wiltshire.
Jessica won a £20 book voucher and a computer for her school. She is pictured here with her mum, Petrina, and Mike Webster, group director of Hills Waste Solutions.
