It's a new week and you might be needing some #MondayMotivation to keep you going this #DryJanuary. In what feels like the depths of winter, we can be a little harder on ourselves but just by taking part you're doing so much better than you think!💛

Due to the low temperatures, our Severe Weather Emergency Protocol (SWEP) has been activated. If you're concerned about a rough sleeper, please contact our team on 0800 953 7112 or visit gateshead.gov.uk/article/11776/…

If you're looking for somewhere to get warm, stay warm and enjoy a hot drink, everyone's welcome at the venues listed on our Warm Spaces directory and all visitors will be treated equally, with dignity and respect. Find a Warm Space near you: gateshead.gov.uk/article/21258/…
