This fantastic initiative lets you find local warm, welcoming spaces to connect with others, grab a hot drink, and make new friends.
Visit the Warm Welcome Spaces site (follow the button link below) to find a location near you.
The service is especially useful if you live on your own or have relatives/friends who may be in need of a warmer, welcoming environment (perfect for saving money on the heating bill).
The website allows you to search for venues in your local area within seconds. Examples of typical locations include community centres, churches, libraries, pop-up shops, and similar.
You can filter your search by days of the week and by services, e.g. free Wi-Fi, accessible toilets, charging facilities, computer access, etc.
Every warm, welcoming space is completely free to attend, and often includes free hot drinks, and sometimes snacks or hot soup.
If you are looking to volunteer and enjoy making a difference, check out their Volunteer Map to find venues in need of helpers.
Owner/manager of a venue? Then you can register your building to become a warm, welcoming space.
