Amy came to talk to us about the Community Fridge which has now opened outside the Abergwaun Gateweay Club.

This resource is for everyone in the local community and the aim is to make best use of food that would otherwise go to waste.

The space has a fridge and shelving area where a variety of different food products can be stored and made available for anyone to make use of.

For more information you can go to the website http://transitionbrogwaun.org.uk/community-fridges/ or follow their Facebook page to get updates about the food they have in stock.

This project is part of the national CommunityFridgeNetwork which is led by the environmental charity HUBBUB.

This morning we enjoyed a visit from Pandemonium Thearte who told us three Tales of Wales
