We are all far too aware that the cost of heating our homes has soared this winter, so new ‘warm hubs’ have been springing up across the country where people can go and get cosy. Warm hubs are where people can drop in, get warm, have a hot drink and be in the company of other people. Also available is a range of wider support and advice.
Arden Foodbank Team Leader Janet has been to most of the Alcester ones and reports a warm welcome at all, with a variety of different people to chat with (and a free lunch available at some)!
At the time of writing, we are told that hubs will be open until the end of March 2023.
