About our warm welcome provision grant fund

In 2023, we launched a fund to support voluntary, community, and charity organisations within the borough of Hinckley and Bosworth, who wish to provide a warm space for residents and their families.

In 2024, organisations could apply for a grant of £1,500 if they agreed:

  • To offer a heated space during the winter months
  • To be open to everyone
  • To offer refreshments such as a warm drink
  • That the warm space will be completely free of charge

We have considered applications to provide support with associated costs. Examples of associated costs may include:

  • Energy costs linked to the delivery of the project
  • Food and refreshment costs
  • Improving or enhancing an area through a provision
  • Expenses for offering a new activity, such as equipment costs
