Helping our community save: Yorkshire Building Society in Bolton hosts special events for UK Savings Week
Colleagues at the Yorkshire Building Society branch in Bolton will be opening their doors on Saturday, September 27 to support UK Savings Week – an annual campaign that highlights the benefits of saving, whether you're just starting out or looking to make your savings work harder.
The branch, located at 14-16 Mealhouse Lane, will be open from 9am to 12pm, welcoming both existing members and new customers. The branch team will be available to provide guidance on savings options, help people open new accounts, and support customers in reviewing and improving their current savings. They’ll also be on hand to assist with digital banking queries and offer tips to boost digital confidence.
As part of the initiative, the branch will host a Digital Support Day on Tuesday, September 23, aimed at helping customers build their digital skills and make the most of online and app-based banking.
In addition, the branch will be running a Money Minds financial education lesson to help support people in the local community to learn more about managing the cost of living. These sessions will be delivered by the Society team at the branch between 10am-2pm on Thursday, September 25, customers as well as members of the public are welcome to attend.

Pete Lewis, senior savings manager at Yorkshire Building Society, said: “UK Savings Week is a key moment to help people build better savings habits or ensure their money is working as hard as it can. We know how valuable it is for our customers to speak directly with our branch teams, so by opening on Saturday, September, 27 we’re making it easier for people to get the help they need.
“Helping people to save is central to our purpose at Yorkshire Building Society. Offering flexible access – in branch, online or via our app – means we can support our customers in the way that works best for them and continue to provide real help where it matters most.”
