A network of Warm Rooms is open across east Suffolk to provide a safe, welcoming space for anyone struggling with heating costs during the colder winter months. Locations include everything from community halls and churches to leisure centres and pubs, each providing a warm space, hot drinks and an opportunity to connect with other members of the local community. The network of 30 Warm Rooms can be found across the east Suffolk area - with several venues planning free, independently funded activities, ranging from books and games to film showings, allowing people to not only stay warm but also connect with others in the community, reducing isolation and loneliness. Help and advice will be available on subjects such as reducing energy costs and managing finances, while East Suffolk District Council will also be working with the Rural Coffee Caravan to identify and support Warm Spaces in more rural communities. https://www.eastsuffolk.gov.uk/assets/Community/Ease-the-Squeeze/Network-of-Warm-Rooms.pdf or https://ruralcoffeecaravan.org.uk/
