Further funding available to provide warm spaces for Lancashire residents
A third round of grant funding is now available for all voluntary, community and faith organisations who are providing a warm space within their communities in Lancashire, and those that are looking to set one up.
With the help of additional funding, the amount available to local groups has also been increased in this third round.
Warm spaces are also available in all of Lancashire's libraries where you will receive a warm welcome and a hot drink.
So far, more than £70,000 has been committed to support Lancashire's network of warm spaces through the dedicated grant scheme.
Applications for the third round will be accepted until Sunday 19 January.
Venues in Lancashire that are already offering a warm, safe, and welcoming space to residents are able to apply and for more information visit Lancashire County Council's website.
