How you can support churches and charities registered as Warm Welcome Spaces

Pledging to become a warm space isn’t an easy commitment for many churches, as they will also be feeling the effects of rising costs and the burden of their own operational expenses at this time. They’re relying heavily on the generosity of their congregations to ensure that they can fulfil their promise to provide a safe, free, warm and welcoming space for individuals and families to keep encouraged and out of the cold.

Your further support will assist them with the running costs of keeping their lights on and their heat up. It could also cover paying staff for additional hours and providing their volunteers with everything they need to offer the hospitality and provide essentials to anyone attending their Warm Welcome space: tea, coffee and/or a bite to eat.

The Warm Welcome campaign has received an amazing response with over 1,600 charitable organisations already registered to be a Warm Welcome space.
