Warm ‘welcoming places’ will open in Glasgow next month to support residents struggling with soaring energy costs.
Bailie Annette Christie, the chair of Glasgow Life, which runs culture and sport facilities for the council, confirmed venues will be available during the winter to help people reduce their heating bills.
They will be designed around “social activities” to reduce “the stigma associated with poverty”, she said. Food and drink, money advice and health services could also be offered in the centres.
