Learn more about our WARM network! - KCSC E-bulletin

KCSC's weekly e-bulletin

First things first; it's hot. Our borough is so beautiful in the sun but this kind of heat can also be dangerous. Our Health and Wellbeing section contains links to resources to help cope with the weather.

Talking of heat, we're excited to share news of our WARM network project, a series of microgrants available to local organisations. Click on the link below to see exactly what it's all about. You can also book a space on our webinar on 9 July, where you can find out more from Lucy, our Community Resilience Programme Manager.
