Behaviour Support<br />

A new support group for parents and carers<br />

experiencing issues from their children associated<br />

with autism, ADHD and other conditions has<br />

launched in <strong>Wigan</strong>.<br />

The Behaviour Support Circle offers a chance to<br />

meet others going through similar experiences,<br />

and hopefully learning some new strategies and<br />

approaches to dealing with behaviour. Guest<br />

speakers will offer insight into various topics,<br />

including Understanding ADHD and ADHD<br />

Strategies.<br />

Meetings take place on the third Wednesday<br />

of the month from 6pm-8pm, at <strong>Wigan</strong> Youth<br />

Zone on Parsons Walk. For more information,<br />

call 01942 233323 or email a.sampson@<br />

Mill Future in Doubt<br />

The future of the listed Eckersley Mill site hangs in<br />

the balance after experiencing damage to one of<br />

its walls. The southern wall was deemed to be in<br />

danger of immediate collapse, while the western<br />

wall was also damaged.<br />

The affected walls have been removed, along with<br />

much of the Weaving Sheds. Historic England<br />

have been informed and it is hoped they will offer<br />

support to ensure the mill doesn’t deteriorate<br />

further.
