We launched this project in early November to<br />
capture all the ‘warm spaces’ springing up<br />
across Aberdeenshire. These spaces were mostly<br />
community areas which were already warm and lit but<br />
perhaps being underutilised. We are currently working with<br />
74 ‘warm spaces’ across Aberdeenshire.<br />

ANNUAL REPORT <strong>2022</strong><br />
This project continues to grow and our interactive map plots<br />
where and when they are happening - including opening<br />
hours and what is being offered eg. free Wi-Fi, warm soup,<br />
and hot drinks. Many of these ‘warm spaces’ are doubling<br />
up with food pantries and other related services providing<br />
a one-stop-shop for some communities. Most managed to<br />
maintain some level of service over the festive period and<br />
are committed to running until the end of March 2023, when<br />
hopefully the weather will have improved.
