Bridgnorth Town Council is looking to set up a hub of venues in the town to help residents stay warm and safe this winter.
Warm Welcome locations have already been set up across the county and nationally but currently there is only one in Bridgnorth - at the library in Listley Street.
Shropshire Council has on its website a list of approved venues where residents can go during each venue’s normal opening hours, enjoy the facilities and keep warm. Typically they can enjoy free wi-fi and refreshments and access other facilities. Councillor David Cooper, who proposed the expansion of the groups, said:"The problem at the moment is space and location. Bridgnorth Library is a smallish building and obviously it is a library so the public are coming in and out and it might not be suitable for large numbers of people coming in.
