An IT developer has created a website where people can find their nearest warm bank and avoid freezing amid the ‘desperate’ cost of living crisis. Warm banks are places with heating where people keep warm if they're struggling to heat their homes.
Jason Baldry has created a website listing warm banks across the UK in an attempt to help people tackle the ‘desperate’ cost-of-living crisis and stay warm this winter
‘People started signing up fairly slowly and then word spread. We’re over 1,000 listings on the map now and they’re still coming in thick and fast.’ ‘They’re genuinely just crying out for help saying, “I’m on benefits. I can’t afford to heat my house. What should I do?” Mr Baldry maintains the website with a few friends and said he spends most nights adding new warm banks to the map.‘So if they’re running a warm space, they can put the details in there, or the name of it, the time of the week that it runs, time of the day, and then what sort of features are available at the warm space.
