“In a year that was so strong for the Society – but which saw significant cost of living pressures – it made sense to us to continue to invest into our communities. The interest rate rises saw many members getting in touch with us for help and support – and we’ve given them exactly that.
Our human service sets us apart and we must fight to protect it. I also believe strongly in rewarding loyal savers. In the last year, we’ve offered them some fantastic products that have proved really popular. Looking ahead to 2024, I would like us to use our financial strength to continue to improve products and services for members.”
