Why save with the Vernon?

Because we're a mutual building society, every account opened with us helps us do more for our members and local communities. Alongside helping people save and buy their homes, we support the people and places that make Greater Manchester and Cheshire special. Here's some of the impact we made last year:

  • Over £37,000 donated to local charities and community groups
  • Financial education for more than 1,700 local students
  • 100 days of colleague volunteering
  • Over 900 people used our free community space

When you save with us, you're supporting your communities too.
