AGM results 2022
As a mutual building society, we hold an Annual General Meeting (AGM) each year.
This year's AGM took place on Friday, 8 April 2022 at the Marriott Hotel in Leeds.
Because we don't have shareholders, it's you, our members, who help shape our future by voting at the AGM.
This year, 56,302 of you voted.
