The Brick

Wigan charity to raise £175k to buy its current site.  

The Brick is hoping to generate £175,000 to buy its ‘Brick Works’ site on Hodson Street, the future of which came under question when the landlord voiced plans to sell the building. In a desperate bid to raise the considerable sum, The Brick bosses sprang into action, hosting a fundraising gala with some of the borough’s most prominent organisations - generating £42,000 in one evening.

If every resident of the borough donated £1 they could buy it twice...

For such a cause inflicted by governments it should be gifted to them.
