The Brick Homeless Project


The Bricklayers Arms in the town centre of Wigan (affectionately known as the Brick) opened in July 2008 as the culmination of a long project by the Queens Hall Methodist Mission, to provide homeless and disadvantaged people with a dedicated place where they could recover. The service does not provide accommodation but has a day centre which welcomes anyone who needs help with homelessness issues. Many are suffering from addictions and they enjoy the love and help that we provide. The project is transitional and we are constantly looking at new ways to help people.

We hope you enjoy our website - we try to keep it as up to date as possible, with what's happening plus our newsletters and articles.

If you would like to give a regular donation to support our work then please the Centre Manager on 01942 236953.

    Leigh Outreach

Project Workers from the Brick are now operating in Leigh Library every Tuesday between 10am and 12 noon to help the people in Leigh who are homeless or who are vulnerably housed. We aim to provide the same support to people in Leigh that we have been giving to those in Wigan and have started in this small way to see the level of need. We hope to expand this work in the near future and will be taking a keen interest in what is happening in the town. 

If you see anyone sleeping rough, either in Wigan or Leigh, we would be grateful if you could report it on 01942 236953 and we will do our best to try to make contact with the individual.
