List of warm rooms across Nottingham and Nottinghamshire

As temperatures continue to fall and energy prices hit record highs, many are turning to warm rooms this winter. In an effort to support communities hardest hit by the rising fuel costs, warm rooms have been set up across Nottingham and Nottinghamshire.

From community centres to churches and libraries, there is support in many areas, as well as help through the government's Warm Home Discount Scheme.

If you are looking for a place to go to stay warm this winter, we have compiled a list of warm spaces across Nottingham and Nottinghamshire. The list of warm spaces are those which have been mentioned by Ask Lion, Gedling Borough Council and Warm Welcome. If you host a warm space and would like to be added, please email mia.ohare@reachplc.com.
