This winter will be very challenging for many individuals, families and communities in Greater Manchester. Rising food and heating costs will cause hardship for many. The Welcome Centre is running a Warm Hub on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, launching on Tuesday 8th November with our Winter Warmer activity.
The Winter Warmer event is an opportunity for people to visit the centre between 11am and 2pm to talk to organisations that can support them with their health, wellbeing and finances to improve their resilience to cope with the difficult winter ahead. We are providing a hot lunch, fun activities such as music, art and Bollywood exercise and dance, as well as a raffle with great prizes. This event is drop-in so people can just show up on the day. The Warm Hub will run every Tuesday and Wednesday from 9th November and will have free activities running all day ranging from music, art and calligraphy, wellbeing, meditation, gentle exercise and much more, with a free hot lunch for those taking part in activities. We want people to join in positive activities that will improve their wellbeing, provide useful information and help them to meet others as well as enjoying some hot food at lunchtime. Participants will need to contact the Welcome Centre to register for the class activities and can do this by calling 0161 513 4126 or emailing [email protected]
