OLYMPIC rower Jessica Eddie will officially open Aldi’s latest store in York later this week.

Jessica, who claimed her first Olympic silver medal as part of Team GB’s women’s eight at the Rio Olympics in 2016, will be performing the ribbon cutting ceremony at 8am on Thursday at the new store in Water Lane.

She said: “Aldi does an incredible amount to support Team GB, so it’s nice to pay thanks by helping welcome it to the York community.”
