A bit about Warm Welcome…
Despite the Government's energy announcement, millions of households will still be in fuel poverty this winter, with people with disabilities, elderly people, children, people from ethnic minorities, and low-income households amongst the most affected groups.
There is an estimated £800 gap between the overall cost-of-living and package for families on means-tested benefits, meaning many will have to look to their local community and churches for support.
We are delighted to be able to offer our beautiful space to be part of this initiative and welcome all who need it.
