Yorkshire Building Society - one of the UK's largest and most successful building societies - has released its annual Society Matters report highlighting its work to make a lasting and positive impact on society. The 2018 Society Matters report demonstrates the organisation’s recent achievements and vision for the future aligned to the key themes of Community, Customers, People and the Environment.
Highlights include:
“Our report this year highlights the outstanding achievements we have delivered as an organisation and demonstrates our continued commitment to doing the right thing for our members, colleagues, local communities and the environment.
“As a mutual, Yorkshire Building Society is owned by our members, who are customers of our Society. We were founded more than 150 years ago for the purpose of benefitting our members. It means being there for them through the different stages of their lives, whether that’s buying their first home, helping them become financially resilient by saving, or using their money to help the next generation.
“It also means running our organisation responsibly and sustainably, in a way that our members, colleagues and partners can be proud of. This purpose continues to run through the heart of our organisation today as highlighted by our Society Matters report.
“Our Society Matters strategy is helping us achieve our four aims of becoming market-leading for financial inclusion and delivering tailored outcomes for all our customers; being a leading employer, where our colleagues feel respected, valued and proud to work for us; playing an active role in the communities we serve, using our expertise and passion to maximise our impact; and finally being respectful of our planet by continuously reducing our environmental footprint.”
