Greenheart Regional Park
Wigan Borough has undergone a remarkable transformation from the 'dark, satanic mills' of the past to become the greenest Borough in Greater Manchester. Former industrial sites, such as collieries and slagheaps, were significantly cleaned-up and have now been reclaimed by nature. Grouped together, these sites form the Greenheart Regional Park, an extensive network of lakes, grasslands, woodlands and parks, threaded together by the restored Leeds/Liverpool Canal.
This short film, presented by Sky Sports' Phil Clarke, serves as an introduction to Greenheart. |

Creative Leigh
Creative Leigh was an intergenerational Heritage and Arts project, bringing Leigh's past to life through theatre and visual arts. The centre point of Creative Leigh was the play 'The Streets of Leigh' - a promenade theatre performance around the newly-built Leigh Sports Village. The play comprised of eight scenes, focused on different episodes in the history of the town, all played by different local drama groups. As a record of the project, the drama groups were filmed performing their scenes for the camera. |

Wigan Cultural Manifesto
Wigan Leisure and Culture Trust commissioned the production of two short films to accompany their five year plan for cultural development in Wigan Borough. The films focused on arts, sport, heritage, libraries, parks, play facilities and tourism. A longer version, with a narration by Wigan-born writer/broadcaster Stuart Maconie, went into the detail of the current provision in the Borough and aspirations for the future. The shorter version here gives an impression of the range of cultural activities in Wigan. |
