Snug Warm Space
Glastonbury, Somerset, United Kingdom
First target reached!
We want to keep the space open every week forever!
Aim
We are hosting a held, nourishing, safe place that supports community and creativity.
Who are we?
We are a group of Glastonbury and Street residents who want to create better connected communities, services and people.
Community impact
We have been running monthly creative events at the Red Brick Building between Street and Glastonbury. This is a place where anyone is welcome to come and make something in clay, collage, paint... learning from local experts in their field. There is free delicious tea and coffee supplied by the Old Tannery. Trained listeners are available to chat to if that's what you need.
We run trainings in listening and signposting- our listeners can help direct you to services and groups. We have a directory website where you can find local services on offer: counselling, recovery gardening, equine therapy. Glastonbury is full of a diverse range of safe places to be if you are feeling overstretched. We all know how that feels- we are an organisation of peers. We all suffer, and we can all thrive.

Why are we crowdfunding?
We want to offer our warm, safe, creative, community-creating service on a weekly basis and into the evening so that more people can access the service.
How we’ll spend the money raised
With Crowdfunded donations we will be able to pay people to hold the space (artists and listeners), train up more volunteers, keep the venue warm, help support Red Brick (a amazing community resource) and the Old Tannery (an independent small business), keep refreshments free for all, and keep our directory updated.
