Julie Ramsdale, Training Manager, for Wigan Leisure and Culture Trust
“Here at Wigan Leisure and Culture Trust we have been working closely with Wigan and Leigh College for the past year on a variety of programmes for our staff. I have found the team to be extremely helpful and staff feedback about the quality of the programmes has been excellent to date.
