Thirteen welcoming spaces to keep Wigan residents warm this winter
As the cost-of-living crisis continues to surge, community organisations and council buildings across the borough have opened their doors to keep residents warm throughout the winter months.
The scheme run by Wigan Council offers a network of warm, welcoming spaces, each offering different activities and support.
These are 13 of the warm hubs that are available across the borough.
