Throughout winter starting Weds 7th October 2026 we will be opening the Parish Centre from 1pm until 3 pm on each Wednesday. This is part of our deal with Wigan Council. It has been really nice sitting talking with others and keeping them company so that they are not at home, alone in a cold environment. We make tea, coffee, toast, teacakes, cheese & ham toasties, cuppa soup and some of our attendees also bring cakes and biscuits to share. We colour pictures, sometimes craft. We do all this while chatting to each other. We may be coming to an end once April is over and we've really enjoyed meeting up, but we will be back next winter. There are only two of us organising this event and we do need to break for summer. It will be warm then and everyone will want to go out themselves.

This event only occurs during the winter months.
