Wrap Up <strong>Wigan</strong><br />
Residents are being urged by The Brick to clear their<br />
wardrobes of any unwanted coats and any other<br />
unwanted winter clothing to help the homeless stay<br />
warm this winter. The Wrap Up <strong>Wigan</strong> campaign has<br />
been launched by The Brick, which supports people<br />
facing homelessness and poverty in <strong>Wigan</strong> and Leigh.<br />
In particular, The Brick is looking for people to donate<br />
new or good quality coats (adults and children’s sizes),<br />
winter clothing, shoes, toiletries, hats, gloves, scarves,<br />
socks and underwear.<br />
If you have any suitable donations, then please drop<br />
them off at their shops at 160 Gidlow Lane in <strong>Wigan</strong> or 13<br />
Railway Street in Leigh or you can drop them at The Brick<br />
Works at 4 Hodson Street, <strong>Wigan</strong>.<br />
If you would like to access a winter coat or other clothing,<br />
then please call The Brick on 01942 236953 or email<br />
