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.
