Why is the AGM important?
We’re a building society, not a bank, so we can do things differently. Our aim is to provide our members with the best value in banking. If you're a member, it's important to have your say in what we do. The AGM is the perfect place to do this.
You can ask members of the Board questions about any area, including:
The type of products we sell
Where we might open new branches
Community projects that we are involved in
The charities we support
You can also vote on the people standing for election to join Nationwide’s Board.

Your vote really does make a difference
Together with Shelter, we believe everyone deserves a safe place that’s fit to call home. For the past 20 years, we’ve worked together to ensure that those facing a housing emergency are supported and their voices heard.
For every vote cast in our AGM, we’ll donate 10p to Shelter, up to a maximum of £50,000. For 2023, we raised our maximum of £50,000 with thanks to your votes.
