Watch The Bumper Health Day Video

The Bristol Warm Welcome Network is run by a Good Faith Partnership, an organisation that visits and supports community cafes and warm spaces across the city and the UK. We convene these spaces online or in person roughly every two months so they can get to know other people doing the same thing as them, share best practice, receive in-depth training, and hear about funding opportunities.

We also have a monthly newsletter. Our Bumper Health Day gave spaces in the West of England a chance to network and learn more about mental health. We also had a limited supply of free blood pressure testing kits, which some spaces learnt how to use and took back with them to benefit their communities. The NHS 10 Year Plan talks about the big shifts from hospital to community, and sickness to prevention.

The Bumper Health Day is our way of leaning into those, and showing how Warm Welcome spaces can be part of a wider collaboration to keep people happy and healthy!
