Places of welcome across the district

Places of welcome are a growing network of local community groups providing their neighbourhoods with places where all people feel safe to connect, belong and contribute.

Key values are:

  • An accessible and hospitable building, open at the same time every week
  • Open to everyone regardless of their circumstances or situation, and staffed by volunteers
  • A place where people actively listen to one another
  • Offering free refreshments (at least a cup of tea and a biscuit) and basic local information
  • Every person will bring talents, experiences and skills that they may be willing to share locally

There are lots of local places of welcome, waiting to welcome you.
