Warm Banks
During recent winters, around 6.5 million UK households have faced ‘fuel poverty’
due to rising energy prices. This meant they were unable to afford to heat their
homes to the temperature needed to keep warm and healthy.
This led to:
• unsafe homes
• rising debts
• poor health.
‘Warm Banks’ are free heated indoor spaces where people can go to warm up if
they cannot afford to pay for heating. Many of these places provide warm drinks
too. Over 50% of councils in England and Wales have been involved in setting up
warm banks or supporting others to set them up. Charities, councils, community
groups and businesses have helped people who are struggling to keep warm.
Some of the places opened as warm banks have included:
• libraries
• places of worship
• football stadiums
• pubs.
The Warm Welcome campaign created an online map listing all the warm banks
across the UK. Additionally, the hashtags #warmbanks and #warmhubs were used
widely on social media to help people find places to keep warm.
