We’re excited to welcome Launch NW back as a proud sponsor of the Employee of the Year Award at the 2025 Wigan Business Awards.
As the founders and organisers of the awards, Launch NW knows just how important it is to celebrate the people behind the businesses—the loyal team members, rising stars, and everyday heroes who keep things moving forward.
Why This Category Matters
The Employee of the Year Award recognises individuals who go above and beyond, often without expecting the spotlight. From apprentices to long-standing team members, these are the people who bring dedication, energy, and innovation to the workplace every day.
Their impact may go unnoticed—but not by us.
Supporting Local People and Purpose
Launch NW’s commitment to Wigan’s business community goes beyond organising the awards. By sponsoring this category, they’re helping shine a light on the individuals who contribute so much to local business success.
“We’re passionate about celebrating the people who make Wigan’s businesses great. This category is the perfect way to do that,” said Nichola Howard, Managing Director at Launch NW.
“Sponsoring this award gives us the chance to say thank you to those who truly deserve recognition,” added Jo Leigh, Creative Director and Co-Founder.
