We were delighted to welcome Fay, the Neighbourhood Connector for Wigan Council to our Wigan office this week!

It was wonderful to meet and discuss how we can continue to support one another in promoting local services and making a positive difference for older adults across the area.

Thank you, Fay, for taking the time to visit us — we can’t wait to see you again at the Hindley Leisure Centre event next week!
