WITH energy prices skyrocketing at the moment one Sheepwash resident was overjoyed to hear he had won 500 litres of heating oil — in a draw he didn’t know he had entered.

Mr Peter Clark, a retired resident from Sheepwash, said he had no idea he had even been entered and it had been a ‘wonderful surprise’ when the call came through to say they would be receiving 500 litres of heating oil from Moorland Fuels’ Cosy Heating Club free quarterly oil draw.

Mr Clark said his wife feels the chill in the evenings so both are now looking forward to a warm and cosy spring thanks to the win.

Commenting on his unexpected win, Mr Clark said: “I had no idea I was even entered into the Cosy Heating Club draw, so when I got the call, it was a wonderful surprise! We go through a lot of heating oil, especially in the colder months, as my wife feels the chill in the evenings. Even now, with spring here, we still have the heating on because of the cold winds and chilly nights.”

Mr Clark added: “We've been customers of Moorland Fuels for four years, ever since we moved to our home in Sheepwash. We've always paid by Direct Debit, and it’s great to know that being part of the Cosy Heating Club comes with benefits like this. The 500 litres of free heating oil will really help, and we’ll be putting the money we've saved towards next winter.”

Since becoming employee-owned in 2022, Moorland Fuels, which serves customers across the South West, has introduced a series of new initiatives designed to reward its customers. Among these is its flagship customer reward scheme, the Cosy Heating Club, which is free to join.
