National Grid Winter Warner Project

The Centre ran a Winter Warmer Project funded by the National Grid. The funding enabled us to open the Centre as an open-access warm space for young people who could not afford to heat their homes to come and stay warm five days a week throughout the winter.

​

The project supported 150 participants, by providing a warm space and access to hot drinks and hot food but also through activities including yoga and exercise sessions, creative and art therapy activities, and a community Christmas meal.

Participants also received a Winter Warmer pack including hot water bottles, blankets and socks to take home.
