Kevin Parry, Society Chairman, said :
"The AGM is our members' opportunity to have their say on the
way the Society is run and to vote on the people standing for
election or re-election to the Society's Board. This year, the
Society held its first fully online AGM with members able to
participate online, including voting and asking questions by video
or text in real time. Members were also able to submit questions in
advance of the meeting by email and post. The Board values the
opportunity to engage with members and the AGM, together with our
hybrid, in person and online Member Talkbacks achieves this
objective over the course of the year.
"The AGM remains an important day in our calendar. Nationwide
has continued to demonstrate its focus on its customers, whilst
protecting its financial strength. We faced into various challenges
over the last year including cost of living pressures, rising Bank
base rate and inflation, and economic instability and the Board has
acted with due care to ensure our long-term success. The Board has
approved a new strategy and purpose which enables us to become a
truly modern mutual and we continue to be a well-trusted brand on
the UK high street. Our Society remains strongly positioned for the
future".

We are announcing the following principal Board changes that are
effective today:
-- Mai Fyfield retires from the Board after serving an eight-year term;
-- Gunn Waersted retires from the Board after serving a six-year term; and
