Your Ambassadors

Wigan and Angers have devised a unique system of ensuring the Twinning prospers: each year, the towns exchange ‘ambassadors’, who work daily on the links that unite our two towns.

Bonjour et Bienvenue, Welcome!!!

Let us introduce ourselves...

  • Heather Thompson, your ambassadress from Wigan
  • Aline Domeau, your ambassadress from Angers.

From 1 October 2008 until 30 September 2009, we will be representing our respective home towns, Angers and Wigan: Heather being based in Angers and Aline based in Wigan.

Our Role

We are here to provide support to your twinning needs in order to develop new links between Angers and Wigan. The job of ambassadress is to encourage the twinning by promoting her hometown and her culture.

Because Twinning is Yours...

The twinning of the two towns relies on your involvement, so if you have any project or enquiry, don’t hesitate to contact us. We will be very pleased to help you in any way we can, whether you need linguistic support, have a transport or an accommodation question, or if you need help creating links and organising an exchange.

If you want to get involved in the twinning, please check the “Opportunities” section.

If you want to be a host family, if you have any work placements, internships or anything else to offer, PLEASE contact us. We need you...the twinning needs you!

Whatever your interest in France or your twin town, we hope that you will be able to benefit from this opportunity, just as we do!

Twinningly yours,

Heather & Aline

Your ambassadors.
