Principles met

In early 2021, Wigan Council formed the Business Consortium to involve local businesses at a strategic level to understand how we can work together to support the borough’s long-term recovery from Covid-19 and build a more resilient economy through a community wealth building approach.

Wigan Council has collaborated with the Business Consortium to refresh the Deal for Business, an informal agreement originally launched in 2015 in which the Council and local businesses each have pledged to work together to create a successful and sustainable local economy.

Together, we have co-designed a new enhanced offer which signifies our shared commitment to work together to tackle economic inequality and build an inclusive and low-carbon economy.
