'Safer in Town' Project Launched

Thumbs Up!  Wigan and Leigh People First are setting up a ‘Safer in Town’ scheme to help people with a learning disability feel safe when they go about their everyday life in Wigan.
Photo of Contact Card  Every person joining the scheme will get a Safer in Town fold out card.
Photo of Safer in Town Leaflets  We are asking shops, pubs, cafes, banks, libraries and any other public buildings to display a Safer in Town logo in their window.
If the person gets into any difficulty, they can go into one of these premises.
There they will be helped to contact someone from the contact list on their fold out card.
