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.
