Tilbury Douglas joins the Wigan Business Awards 2025 as sponsor of the Skills Investment Excellence Award.
As a leading UK firm in building, infrastructure, engineering, and fit-out, Tilbury Douglas deliver vital projects across health, education, water, defence, justice, and civic sectors
Their sponsorship of this award highlights something just as vital: their belief in people.
Building Skills That Build Futures
The Skills Investment Excellence Award recognises organisations who go the extra mile to train, develop and empower their people.
From apprenticeships and on-the-job learning to leadership pathways and industry accreditations, these are the businesses helping shape a stronger, more skilled workforce for Wigan and beyond.
That purpose sits right at the heart of Tilbury Douglas.
Importantly, they’ve built their reputation on quality, safety, and innovation, but their long-term success is rooted in investment in people.
That includes championing future talent, creating clear progression routes, and helping build a resilient UK workforce.
Backing Local Ambition
By supporting this category, Tilbury Douglas is reinforcing the importance of skills development as a key part of social value.
Their involvement celebrates the businesses doing great work in this space and also helps shine a light on the role employers can play in shaping stronger communities through opportunity.
Nichola Howard, MD of Launch NW, organisers of the Wigan Business Awards said:
“We’re delighted to welcome Tilbury Douglas to this year’s campaign.
“Their focus on building a better future together through infrastructure and people makes them an ideal Skills Investment sponsor.”
Martin Horne, Regional Director for Tilbury Douglas added
“At Tilbury Douglas, we know that investing in skills is essential, both for the future of our industry, and for the communities we work in.
Sponsoring this award allows us to recognise the local businesses creating real opportunities for people to learn, grow, and succeed.
We’re proud to support the Wigan Business Awards and help shine a light on those making a difference through skills and training.”
