There are six 'warm welcome spaces' in the Coalville area designed to provide support for those who need it most during the winter months.

The areas are associated with the Warmwelcome.uk organisation which has been set up to provide help during the cost of living crisis amid rising energy costs.

It provides free, warm, and welcoming spaces in communities across the UK.

Working with churches and other faith groups, civil society organisations, businesses and Local Authorities, Warmwelcome.uk wants to make sure that nobody is left to suffer on their own this winter.

The warm spaces in Coalville and surrounding areas are:

• James Street Church, LE67 3BX, every Friday between 3pm-6pm with free drinks, snacks and a hot meal between 5pm-6pm. Everyone is welcome.
