Summer of fun to be had at Wigan borough cinema
and on Freeview 262 or Freely 565
The cinema, which is volunteer led and is fast approaching its second birthday, has secured the support of several local businesses to enable them to offer tickets for six screenings on a pay as you feel basis - meaning that a family can enjoy a trip to the cinema every week of the holidays whatever their budget.
Kevin Lowe, Events manager at the cinema, said 'We believe that everyone deserves a little cinema escapism now and again, but we know that sometimes it can be beyond the means of many families, especially with the cost of living continuously rising. The local businesses that have come on board and covered the cost of the film licenses for us mean that we can offer families a couple of hours where they can leave those worries behind, every week of the holidays'
