From our Sponsors Event and Finalists Celebration to the awards night itself, there's always so much happening at WBBA, and thankfully we have someone there to capture it all!

Michelle Fletcher of Michelle Charnock Photographer has been a fantastic supporter of Wigan Borough Business Awards since the very beginning, helping us capture the people, celebrations and special moments that make each event so memorable.๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿ™Œ

It's not just about the photographs on the day, Michelle's images give us the opportunity to share those moments afterwards, celebrate the achievements of our finalists and winners, and provide everyone with photographs they can use to promote their own success!

We're so grateful for Michelle's continued support over the past three years and for being part of the WBBA team from day one. We've featured Michelle in our latest WBBA Partner Spotlight, sharing a little more about her involvement and why her support means so much to us.

This week marks a very special milestone for our partners in crime Fubhub as they celebrate 10 years of bringing women in business together across Wigan Borough!

What started as an idea to create a friendly, informal networking group has grown into something much more, with countless friendships, business connections, collaborations and opportunities created along the way.

As one of the founding organisations behind Wigan Borough Business Awards, Fubhub has played an important part in bringing WBBA to life, and we're incredibly proud to work alongside such a fantastic group of women.๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿ™Œ

A special congratulations to Sue France and the entire Fubhub team for everything you've achieved over the past decade. Here's to 10 years of supporting women in business, and many more to come! ๐Ÿฅ‚

Happy Birthday, Fubhub! Enjoy every minute of your celebrations this week! ๐ŸŽ‚

Some of the best ideas come from working with people who really get what you're trying to achieve! And that's certainly been the case with Louise Fairhurst and Steve Fairhurst from Branded Items Group who have been working alongside us since the very first Wigan Borough Business Awards! ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿ™Œ

Over the past three years, they've helped us bring all sorts of ideas to life. Sometimes they've come to us with suggestions, sometimes we've gone to them with a challenge, and between us we've come up with some fantastic results!

From dual-branded scarves and reversible bucket hats to trophies, branded sunglasses, trolley fobs and foam fingers, Louise and Steve have helped us create some fantastic merchandise that have become part of the WBBA experience. It's that willingness to get involved, share ideas and go the extra mile that makes working with them such a pleasure.

We've featured Branded Items Group in our latest WBBA Supplier Spotlight, sharing more about the products they've helped us create and the part they've played in making WBBA what it is today.

As part of the fundraiser, guests were invited to nominate a Wigan Borough Charity, CIC or Social Enterprise to receive the money raised. We're delighted that The Brick was selected at random as this year's beneficiary, helping to support the important work they do for people facing homelessness and poverty across our borough.

A huge thank you to Westwood Motor Group for their continued support of WBBA and for sponsoring this year's fundraiser, and to everyone who donated.
We've shared more about the fundraiser and the difference this donation will make in our latest blog.

We're continuing our series of WBBA supporter spotlights, celebrating the fantastic local businesses who help us bring the awards to life each year!

This time, it's the turn of Anne Hurcombe from Wigan Pier Promotions who has been supporting WBBA from the very beginning!

Anne has been part of our WBBA story for the past three years, working alongside us, sharing ideas and helping us with those all-important details that make such a difference.๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿ™Œ

One of the things we're particularly proud of at WBBA is our commitment to keeping our investment local, and we're absolutely loving the opportunity to tell you more about the businesses and people we work with. Behind every successful event are some brilliant local businesses, and we couldn't do what we do without them!

We've put together a special spotlight on Wigan Pier Promotions, looking at their involvement with WBBA and why we're so grateful for their continued support.

If you joined us at WBBA 2026, you certainly won't have missed the work of our Signage Sponsor, Pinnacle Branding Group Ltd!

From the branded entrance walkways and welcome signage to our finalist stars, sponsor branding and the incredible branded dance floor, Sean Aidley and the Pinnacle team have played a huge part in bringing the WBBA brand to life over the past two years!๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿ™Œ

And there's a lot that happens behind the scenes too! Ideas change, deadlines get tighter and, this year, we even had the small matter of a Wigan Warriors semi-final taking place at The Brick Community Stadium on the very same day! Through it all, Sean and the team just got stuck in and worked alongside us to make it happen.

We've put together a Sponsor Spotlight looking at our partnership with Pinnacle Branding Group Ltd, some of the work they've created for WBBA and why having the right local businesses around us makes such a difference.

Every year, weโ€™re incredibly lucky to have the support of students from Wigan & Leigh College at Wigan Borough Business Awards, and once again, they were absolutely fantastic! ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿ™Œ

From creating the beautiful floral arrangements for the evening to joining us on the night to welcome guests, help them find their tables and make sure everyone was pointed in the right direction, they play a really important part in helping the evening run smoothly. Professional, friendly, helpful and always willing to get stuck in!๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘

We love that this has become part of WBBA each year. The awards are about celebrating the businesses and people making a difference across our borough, but they're also an opportunity to involve the next generation and give local students the chance to gain experience and be part of a major business event.

A huge thank you to every student who supported us this year, to those who have helped us in previous years, and to the team at Wigan & Leigh College who continue to make it possible. We really do appreciate having you as part of the WBBA team each year. ๐Ÿ˜Š

A special thank you also goes to our event sponsor Impressions Print and Embroidery for providing the t-shirts for our team on the night! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘

Your support means the world to us and, quite simply, we couldn't deliver this event without you!๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿ™Œ

Some of you have been with us since the very beginning, some have returned year after year and others joined us for the first time in 2026, and we never take that support for granted. We hope that on Saturday night, seeing the room full, the excitement as the awards were announced and the celebrations that followed, you felt incredibly proud to have played a part in making it happen.

We know sponsoring WBBA is an investment, and we work incredibly hard throughout the year to make sure our sponsors are part of what we do and not simply a logo on awards night! So this one's for you, our WBBA 2026 sponsors - thank you so much for getting behind us, for supporting what we're trying to achieve and for helping us make this year's awards one we'll remember for a very long time.๐Ÿ†๐Ÿ•บ๐Ÿ’ƒ
