The Warm Welcome Campaign

In 2022 the Good Faith Foundation set up the Warm Welcome Campaign to provide places where people could go to keep warm. Today, they support a network of over 6,000 Warm Welcome Spaces, offering warmth and welcome to communities across the UK.

Safe and welcoming spaces

Safe and welcoming spaces
Warm Welcome Spaces host everyone from older neighbours living alone, young people struggling with energy bills, parents with small children, and anyone simply looking for a warm, safe, friendly place to be. They offer both physical and human warmth.

Giving hope and easing loneliness

Giving hope and easing loneliness
At Uplift in Birmingham, volunteers Naima and Yasmin welcomed mum Ayan and her son Abubakar with open arms. It’s like a second home for them and a reminder that Warm Welcome Spaces are not just about temperature.

Keeping Warm Welcome spaces open to all

Keeping Warm Welcome spaces open to all
With rising costs, many spaces find it hard to keep pace with paying for rent, heating, and essentials. Your gift will go into a fund which provides grants to Warm Welcome Spaces to help them stay open.
