Our Warm Place offer ensures those who need it have access to a comfortable space, free hot food and company throughout the winter.

Since 2023, we have delivered four Warm Place projects for the local community, supported by a variety of funders and partners. We aim to provide a space for those who need it with hot food, a clothes bank and hygiene bank for free, as well as access to organisations and services who can support with signposting and guidance.

Our last Warm Place, delivered in winter 2026 in partnership with Ipswich Job Centre Plus, saw nearly 400 attendances over 9 weeks. We were fortunate in having the support of many partner organisations, including:

  • UK Power Networks
  • Ipswich Outreach
  • ITFC Foundation
  • IBC Housing Support
  • BME Suffolk
  • Family First
