WTM is proud to be a part of the Warm Spaces Project.

We’re happy to announce that WTM will be joining the Warm Spaces project again this winter, with support from Adur & Worthing Councils. The cost-of-living crisis continues to affect millions across the UK, with many reporting they are unable to switch on the heating. We believe everyone should have a warm and welcoming space to go to this winter, which is why we’re joining a network of community organisations, libraries, businesses and other groups across the UK who have opened their doors to provide exactly that.

You can find Warm Spaces at Fraser’s Bar in the Connaught Theatre and at Worthing Museum and Gallery. Available on selected dates please see below for further details:
