Welcome to the parish website of St William Wigan. In 2018 the Catholic parishes of St.William in Ince, St. Patrick, Hardybutts and St. John, Standishgate were amalgamated as one under the leadership and guidance of our parish priest, Fr. Paul Grady, and our Assistant Priest, Fr. Hugh Donleavy. In July 2024 the church of St Mary on Standishgate was also amalgamated into the parish of St William. We hope you find our website useful and informative. If you have any suggestions please let us know using the contacts page. Our weekly newsletter can be found at the bottom of this page.

Praying with the Pope: In February we pray for vocations to the priesthood and religious life. Let us pray that the ecclesial community might welcome the desires and doubts of those young people who feel a call to serve Christ’s mission in the priesthood and religious life.
