Finding it cold at home? Want to meet up with others in a warm local community space?
If you are struggling with your energy bills, you might not be keep your heating on as much as you usually would at this time of the year.
There are a number of local community spaces where you can drop-in, receive a warm welcome, stay warm, maybe enjoy some company and a hot drink.
Islington Libraries
Libraries in Islington are warm spaces you can go to during their opening hours. Select your local library for opening hours, contact details and information about facilities.
The Charterhouse, Fridays 10am - 12pm
Charterhouse Square, Barbican, London EC1M 6AN
A group of our residents got together to set up a winter Warm Space initiative in response to the cost-of-living crisis. The response was so positive that they decided it should stay open all year round. It has now evolved into the Community Space and is open every Friday at 10:00 – 12:00.
Every week our residents are ready to welcome regulars and new visitors dropping by for a chat and a free hot drink in the Chapel Cloister, or anyone who would just like to come and enjoy some quiet time in our beautiful historic site. See the Charterhouse website for more information.
