- Wigan Borough in Bloom - Environmental Education

Wigan Council established an Environmetnal Eduation Team in October 2007 in order to raise awareness of the environmental problems facing Wigan Borough today.

The Team's vision is:

"To make Wigan Borough a cleaner, safer, greener borough by changing
people's behaviour towards respecting the environment in which
they live, work and visit."

In order to try and achieve this vision they are responsible for running a series of awareness raising campaigns in partnership with schools, communities and businesses. 

Campaigns include:

• Big Tidy Up
• Anti-Chewing Gum litter
• Anti-dog fouling
• Tidy Business Awards
