Bishop Matthew was on @bbcstoke / @bbcwm / @bbcshropshire last Sunday morning talking about @placesofwelcome which are supported by our @strengtheningourcommunities team. There are now 800 of these free, community enhancing locations around the country and a quarter of them are in this diocese in all kinds of places - churches obviously but also halls, libraries even theatres and football clubs.
He talked to Donna Alos @bbcwm - listen again at https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/p0k0w73s starting at 2:14:50.
