Warm Welcomes are community spaces in the local neighbourhood bringing people together. Its somewhere people can gather for support, comfort and interact with others.

The spaces have recently been given some funding from Rushcliffe CVS to incorporate more physical activity into their existing and emerging Warm spaces. Which has allowed them to run gardening sessions for the local young people, buy equipment to help provide activities and even connected them with partners such as This Girl Can to train volunteers to deliver dance sessions.

For many people in the community these warm spaces are where they can go for support, to meet people or the only community hub near them, especially for those who are older adults or have young children. Its a welcoming space for all.
