Discussions with Wigan Council regarding two listed chapels in Ince-inMakerfield with a view to restoration. Architect Alfred Waterhouse. Process ongoing with getting a new bank account that enables us to “bank properly” as at the moment we are with the YBS. Gained a couple more volunteers on an informal basis over the year and have started to keep a volunteer spreadsheet logging hours put in.

The Trust continues to raise public awareness of the heritage assets within the Wigan area via our websites and social media platforms. https://www.wiganlocalhistory.org/ and https://www.wiganbuildings.co.uk/ Continuing and completing work within the Historic England KIng Street Heritage Action Zone, through the "The Street That Was" strand. The previous work undertaken by our volunteers, with the appropriate professional skills, will allow the Trust to make the step change and undertake restoration projects.
