Do you own Caerphilly’s oldest fridge or freezer?

The search is on for the oldest fridge or freezer in Caerphilly County Borough.

The resident who is able to prove they have the oldest fridge or freezer in the borough will win a top of the range, energy and money saving Electrolux fridge freezer.

The competition has been organised by the council’s Rural Development Programme, Caerffili Cwm a Mynydd, to raise awareness of how much old appliances can waste energy.

On average, a 15-year-old fridge or freezer can cost more than £110 per year to run. By upgrading to a more energy efficient model, households could save more than £75 a year.

The competition runs until October 31. To enter call 01495 235944 or email silcok@caerphilly.gov.uk.
