WRD invites you to share your skills

UK: To celebrate World Refrigeration Day (WRD) 2025 and its Cool Skills theme, the WRD secretariat is inviting individuals and organisations to share their successes.

WRD on June 26th will celebrate the people whose skills keep the world cool, safe and connected – individuals whose efforts behind the refrigeration, air conditioning, and heat pump (RACHP) industry go largely unseen. This year’s campaign aims to put faces to the skills, and voices to the expertise.

Individuals and organisations across the sector are invited to submit photos and short stories of team members – technicians, engineers, apprentices, admin staff, support workers, educators, and innovators – anyone whose work contributes to the success of the industry.

Full details are contained on the World Refrigeration Day website.
