The contest asks for ‘a dollop of imagination’ in a bid to ensure children remain interested in STEM projects.

STEM projects refer to science, technology, engineering and maths.

Create Health’s creative director, Phil Blackmore said: “We’re on a mission to brighten up isolation and inspire every child in the nation.

“Children have creativity by the bucketload, but often aren’t consulted on the big issues that they will likely face in the future. We think they should be.”
