Update on today’s theft. I would like to thank each and everyone of you who contacted us and shared our post. Seems some people maybe have a conscience after all and the bike has been returned. My staff work dam hard to make an honest living and serve their community and that has come back to us today with all your support. Thank-you so much from the bottom of our hearts for helping get our lad his bike back! And always remember (if you thieves are looking) we have the best CCTV and clients that have our backs! ❤️🥰 thank-you all again ###

We don't want to leave :)

Third year's a charm... or are we just refusing to let Varty's leave? 😆🎉

We're thrilled to have Varty's Funeral Directors back for a third consecutive year as sponsors of Best New Business at the Wigan Business Awards!

But this isn't just about sponsorship. Since joining the awards, Kristen and the team have built lasting friendships, supported incredible local charities, found new suppliers, and proved that networking is about far more than swapping business cards over a brew. ☕🤝

From refreshing a generations-old family business to championing Wigan's newest entrepreneurs, Varty's continues to show what happens when you invest in your local business community.

Fancy finding out how one sponsorship led to collaborations, fundraising, and partnerships that are still going strong?

What happens after you call a funeral director?
