100 years of the Vernon

From supporting returning soldiers in buying their own home in 1945 to being a reassuring voice, easily contactable during economic downtimes in 2008, we’ve always been here for our Members, and still care about the things that really matter.

We'd love to learn about your memories of the Vernon. That's why we're offering you the chance to win. Simply share your memory of the Society with #Vernon100 on Social Media, and our three favourite posts will win a £100 John Lewis voucher.


How do I enter?

Simply share your memory and photo (if you have one) on social media.

On FACEBOOK: Simply post your memory mentioning @vernonbuildingsociety and #Vernon100.

On TWITTER/X: Tweet your memory using @vernonstockport and #Vernon100.

This could be anything from a time we've been there to support you or even your favourite moment with Vernon Bear. 

The closing date for entries is 4pm 27th March 2024, T&Cs apply*. Good luck and get sharing!


What's up for grabs?

We'll pick our favourite memories and the winning three will each receive a £100 John Lewis Voucher.
