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 or to be re-elected to Nationwide’s Board.
AGM 2024
This year our AGM took place on Wednesday 17 July 2024.
Vote to help support your community
To celebrate the launch of our new social impact programme, Nationwide Fairer Futures, we promised to donate £1 per vote up to £500,000 to our 3 new charity partners. We're pleased to say due to the number of AGM votes received we will be donating the full amount as directed by our members.
The money will be shared with Centrepoint to tackle youth homelessness, Action for Children to support families living in poverty, and Dementia UK to help people living with dementia.
Nationwide Fairer Futures supports people who have been dealt an unfair hand, making a difference to some of the most vulnerable in our communities.
