We’re thrilled to say that Jayne Shufflebotham, founder of Meliora Consulting, is not only part of the WBA team, she’s also an official sponsor!
She’s the reason your finalist interview ran on time.
The woman behind the spreadsheet that saved our sanity.
She’s the organiser of organisers, the fixer of chaos, the human SOS.
Jayne has generously chosen to sponsor the Beauty, Health & Wellbeing category for 2025.
We couldn’t think of a better fit for someone who truly sorts out sht*
(her words, not ours, although we totally agree).
Meliora: Helping You Move Toward Better Things
Jayne’s business, Meliora Consulting, is named after the Latin word meaning “better” or “pursuit of better things”.
Which is exactly what she brings to the table.
Whether she’s streamlining operations, managing change, or helping us stop spinning plates long enough to enjoy the meal, she’s all about making life better, and funnier, for those around her.
Nichola Howard, organiser of the Wigan Business Awards, said:
“Honestly, we don’t know what we’d do without Jayne. She makes everything easier, more efficient, and somehow more fun too.
Her no-nonsense, get-it-done attitude is legendary behind the scenes.
But it’s her kindness, humour, and commitment to doing things properly are what make her truly special.”
From Backstage to Centre Stage
Jayne usually prefers to work her magic from the wings.
This year Jayne is stepping into the spotlight.
By sponsoring a category that celebrates businesses that help us all feel, look, and live a little better.
Jayne Shufflebotham, founder of Meliora Consulting, said:
“I’ve seen first-hand how much work goes into these awards and how hard the finalists work too.
Sponsoring the Beauty, Health & Wellbeing category felt like a great way to support the people who are out there making others feel good every single day.
Plus, it’s a category full of brilliant, bold women, my kind of people!”
A Business That Gets Sh*t Done (With a Smile)
At Meliora Consulting, Jayne helps businesses of all sizes simplify the complicated stuff.
From people management, process improvement, board-level support to back-office systems.
But the real magic is in how she does it: with heart, honesty, and the kind of wit that makes even the most stressful day bearable.
She ticks many boxes, she clears clutter, builds clarity, and helps people fall back in love with the work they do.
So, while she was coordinating all the finalist interviews and juggling a million details behind the scenes, she’s also helping us champion wellbeing in business.
Because if anyone knows how to take care of others while getting the job done, it’s Jayne.
Thank you, Meliora Consulting.
For making our lives better, and for supporting the 2025 Wigan Business Awards in true Shuffers style.
👏 You’re a legend.
