TACT opens up as warm spaces throughout the winter has seen more than a dozen people a day enjoying what it has to offer in its first week.
And organisers at TACT in Telford say they hope many more will call in for a free lunch and chance to keep warm and socialise with others. The TACT centre, off King's Street in Wellington, is offering soup and a roll as well as hot drinks to everyone who calls in between 11am and 2pm every day.
Funding has come from a Warm Spaces grant from Telford & Wrekin Council, and manager, T Roberts said volunteers hoped to ring the changes with the type of lunches on offer. "We have welcomed people of all ages, men and women, although up to now they have mostly been I would guess over the age of 40," she said.
