FREE BUS SERVICE TO WIGAN YOUTH ZONE
It’s important for us here at Wigan Youth Zone that everyone can benefit from the service and not just those who live closest to the centre. As such we have a dedicated Outreach Team to bring young people from far and wide into the youth zone to engage with our activities.
Wigan Youth Zone is happy to offer a programme of free buses bringing in young people from across the borough.
These services will be popular so it’s a good idea to reserve your place. Text your name, required pick up point and the date you want to travel to 07400 411 113.
Although these are free services, we ask you bring 50p to cover entry into the Youth Zone.
Anyone new to these services must bring a signed parental consent form – download yours here and bring it with you.

WALKING BUS SERVICE
We also run a Walking Bus service for Junior Club members. These run every Tuesday, providing safe, chaperoned walks into the Youth Zone as well as the return journey.
