Cost of Heating Crisis|<br />

Warm Spaces open up in<br />

<strong>Aberdeenshire</strong><br />

of winter, and as the temperatures<br />

start to fall, many communities across<br />

<strong>Aberdeenshire</strong> have been putting their thinking<br />

caps on - what can they do to support people<br />

who are struggling to heat their homes, to help<br />

everyone stay warm and have the opportunity<br />

to connect with others in their community?<br />

Warm Spaces are the answer and they are<br />

beginning to spring up across <strong>Aberdeenshire</strong>.<br />

Once again, in times of crisis, our voluntary<br />

communities are rising to the challenge<br />

and looking after their most vulnerable. All<br />

sorts of venues are offering warm spaces in<br />

<strong>Aberdeenshire</strong> such as local libraries, halls,<br />

community centres, churches or voluntary<br />

organsiations. Communities are coming<br />

together to connect people who need it the<br />

most.<br />
