Bringing Lewisham together through giving and sharing. ✨
With the fourth consecutive year of #WarmWelcomes coming to a close, we'd like to thank the 41 hubs that made it possible, as well as the thousands of attendees! ☀️ Initiatives like these highlight how important it is for our community to have non-consumer driven spaces to get together.

It’s getting much colder and the rising cost of living has made it harder to stay warm this winter. That’s why we’ve coordinated a network of local organisations to run Warm Welcomes spaces! It was wonderful to have Lewisham Councillor Amanda De Ryk visit some of our Warm Welcome venues this week 💝
