We’re committed to creating a lasting positive impact in the communities where our members and colleagues live and work. That’s why we’ve built our strategy around our purpose of providing Real Help with Real Life – making sure we’re doing the right thing for our customers, colleagues and the environment.
The Social Purpose and Sustainability team looks after all the community programmes we have in place from managing our charity partnerships to developing volunteering initiatives and supporting the Yorkshire Building Society Charitable Foundation. You can get in touch with the team via community@ybs.co.uk
As well as using our expertise, passion and scale to maximise impact in the communities we serve, Community has clear business benefits. It helps us build relationships with customers, build a positive reputation in communities and increase colleague skills, wellbeing and engagement.
Volunteering time and skills can be just as valuable a gift as money to charities and communities and is also excellent for colleague development.
We’re proud to be supporting Age UK. Together, we aim to raise £1 million to help them strengthen the financial resilience of older people in communities across the country.
