We want a real market with real stalls, a traditional market selling good local produce.
Who wants a gentrified, tokenistic market in a basement?

New Year
New Start
The people of Wigan will not give up when they know those leading the town are making poor decisions

Time to shift from secret decision making in the town hall
#ItsOurTown
2022 - the Year that the people of Wigan took back control & shared it out between themselves.
Residents are fed up of asking to be involved in decision making & ignored..
People are organising & ready to act...
