WHAT IS
MADE IN WIGAN?
It’s an opportunity for any person from within the community to turn an individual interest or raw skill into a valued product or service.
Then to work with other people, to create new, or expand existing, community businesses...
...businesses that not only add value and trade with the local and wider community, but that in turn generate further revenue, jobs and commerce.

MADE IN WIGAN
Born out of the great work started by Abram Ward Community Cooperative, and boosted by support from Power to Change, the Made in Wigan initiative aims to provide opportunities for anyone within the community who wants to start a new, or become part of an existing community business.
Three such businesses are already thriving with the support of Wigan Council & The Deal, third sector organisations such as Embrace & Belong and local businesses such as Connolly Ltd.
AM I
MADE IN WIGAN?
We believe that everyone has at least one ‘something’. Something that they love to do and something that they’re really good at.
Something that can be made into something of value, something to be grown into something more.
...You may not know what your something is just yet. We’ll help you find it and help you answer the question “Am I made in Wigan?”
We believe the answer is yes.
Isn’t that something?
