  • Andrew Haigh (CEO, Newcastle Building Society) will present and discuss the benefits they have seen of placing Branches and Communities at the heart to deliver member value and how this has been achieved. 
  • Senior Building Society leaders, Chief Executive Officer’s Richard Fearon (Leeds Building Society), and Andrew Haigh (Newcastle Building Society), Annie Cossar, Chief Customer Officer (Market Harborough Building Society) and Lucy Crumplin Chief Operating Officer (The Cambridge Building Society) will be taking part in ‘A Fireside Chat – A Branch Strategy for the Future’.
