Creating a Place of Welcome
Event Information
Description
To bring individuals, faith groups and community organisations, together to develop a place of welcome in Leicester.
The principles would follow the growing grassroots network who are doing this around the UK:
Place: An accessible and hospitable building, open at the same time every week.
People: Open to everyone regardless of their circumstances or situation, and staffed by volunteers.
Presence: A place where people actively listen to one another.
Provision: Offering free refreshments and basic local information.
Participation: Recognises that every person coming to a Place of Welcome will bring talents, experiences and skills that they might be willing to share.
If you want to help develop the vision, get involved, talk about what you have to offer then please come a long and join us at GraceWork’s community garden for lunch and a chat.
