Our Annual General Meeting was held on Wednesday 25 March 2020.
Despite an uncertain economic and political landscape, the Society reported a profitable year and remains fully focused on providing long term sustainable value to our members, while investing further in our branch network and digital capabilities.
In light of the COVID-19 pandemic this AGM was held behind closed doors with members unable to attend. An audio recording of proceedings can be found on this page.
Our biggest event of the year
Our AGM doubles up as our lead member event for the year, often attracting a high attendance. In fact, we're pleased to have consistently hosted the best-attended AGM in the whole building society sector for many of the last few years. While it is of course a legal requirement for us to hold one each year, our AGM is also a great opportunity for our members to have their say in how we are run and meet the leadership of the Society in person.
