Privacy Policy
Wigan Heritage and Arts Trust is committed to protecting your privacy. We will use the information that we collect about you in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation 2016 and the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations 2003.
Who We Are
The data controller is Wigan Heritage and Arts Trust, a charity registered in England under Number 1203551 at Gerrard Winstanley House, Crawford Street, Wigan, WN1 1NA
Not many people know that we are a charity which means that 100% of our profits go back into our projects. Like other charitable organisations we have to raise funds to enhance and continue what we do. All money that we generate from public events funds the work we do to benefit those who need our support the most.
