Our new vans are on the road…
Keep an eye out… our newest electric Ringtons vans are hitting the road in four colourful new designs, all created by winners of our Drawn Together competition with The Big Draw.
A fresh look for a familiar sight
Our vans have been a familiar sight on doorsteps for generations. While they’ve changed in appearance over the years, one thing hasn’t, the service we know and love. Now, they will be turning heads with a colourful new look inspired by communities we visit every day!
Launched in partnership with The Big Draw, Drawn Together invited people of all ages to celebrate the everyday moments that bring us together. We received over 500 entries from across the UK, each capturing everything from family traditions to quiet moments over a cuppa.
Selecting the winners wasn't easy. Fourteen artworks will feature in the 2027 Ringtons Diary, while four standout designs have been transformed into colourful wraps for our newest electric vans. Now travelling across the North East, Yorkshire and the Midlands, they're bringing a splash of colour (and of course, a side of biccies) to doorsteps with artwork inspired by the communities we visit every day.
Our judging panel said it best:
"We hoped people would enjoy getting involved, but the response exceeded all expectations. From sharing a cuppa with loved ones to taking a quiet moment in a busy day, it was wonderful to see these everyday moments brought to life through so much creativity."
Drawn Together was about more than a competition. Alongside it, we worked with Dave Draws and The Lighthouse Project to run creative workshops for local schoolchildren, encouraging young people to tell their own stories through art.
As we look ahead to our 120th anniversary in 2027, we'll continue finding new ways to bring people together while staying true to the doorstep service generations of customers know and love.
But the celebrations don't stop there… from 24 July, all 14 winning artworks will feature in the 2027 Ringtons Diary, so you can enjoy a little piece of Drawn Together all year round. And if you're already feeling inspired, keep your eyes peeled... we've got another exciting competition brewing. Trust us, you won't want to miss it.
