Winter Resilience Hubs grant scheme Opening date: Monday 28 September 2026

Closing date: Friday 9 October 2026, 11:59pm
​
This year we’re strengthening our Warm Spaces, as we have funding available for those choosing to become a Winter Resilience Hub. Community organisations can apply for funding of up to £1,000 to deliver one weekly Hub session between 2nd November 2026 and 26th February 2027. The aim of these Hubs is to connect residents with information, advice, and support at an early stage as part of our joined-up, “no wrong door” network.

 ​This month's Burnley Linked meeting brought together partners from across the voluntary, ​community, faith and public sectors to share updates, opportunities and areas for collaboration.
