Local Initiatives

We are proud of the partnerships that we have with various organisations within the Wigan borough.  We have developed strong links and trialed a number of initiatives with schools, the Food in Schools Team and Wrightington, Wigan and Leigh NHS Trust.

Some of our most recent initiatives include:

  • Procurement links with Wrightington, Wigan and Leigh NHS trust (external link) .
  • Composting.
  • Visits to a local farm.
  • Nutritional software - we have recently purchased nutritional software to nutritionally analyse our menus: this software will also be used by the Personal Social Health Education and Citizenship Team, with links for cooking clubs etc.
