Every year, we hold an Annual General Meeting (AGM). It’s our way of checking in with our Members (see An Eligible Voting Member below) to make sure their voice is heard in the running of The Mansfield.

In March each year, Members receive their AGM pack – either by email or post (depending on their preference). It includes everything they need to know about the Meeting, along with their invitation to vote. Members that can’t attend in person can still vote by post or online, so they don’t miss the chance to have their say.

At the AGM, we review the year just gone, share updates on our financial performance, and outline our plans for the future. It’s also an opportunity for our Members to ask questions, hear directly from our Board and leadership team, and get involved in the decisions that shape how we work.

For us, it isn’t just a formal meeting, it’s a chance to stay true to what makes a building society different: being owned by our Members and run for their rather than external shareholders.

Show FAQ - A Member's right to vote

All Eligible Voting Members have the right to vote at the AGM. Their vote helps decide who sits on our Board of Directors and whether key resolutions are approved.

Every Eligible Voting Member gets one vote, regardless of how much saved or borrowed. This keeps things fair and balanced, ensuring that every voice carries the same weight.

Voting can be done in person at the AGM, by post, or online – making it easy for Members to have their say in a way that suits them.

Show FAQ - Why voting matters

Voting helps guide The Mansfield’s future. It’s part of what makes us truly Member-owned: decisions aren’t made behind closed doors, but through the direct involvement of the people we exist to serve.

By taking part, Members can help us stay accountable, transparent and focussed on what matters most to them.

Show FAQ - Opting Out

Can anyone opt out of receiving the AGM pack? The short answer is no. Members of The Mansfield are part of the Society’s ownership, and the AGM is their official opportunity to help guide how we’re run – we’re also legally obligated to send AGM information every year.

We don’t just send you the AGM information because we have to, we do it because it includes some important details. Information on voting rights, updates on how we’re performing, and details of decisions that could affect our customers. Even if Members choose not to vote, staying informed helps them understand how The Mansfield is managed and makes sure their voice can be heard whenever they want it to be.
