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 parish. In July 2024 the church of St Mary on Standishgate was also amalgamated into the parish of St William. Our parish priest, Fr Paul Grady and assistant priest, Fr Hugh Donleavy, are our spiritual shepherds. 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.
