Membership Rights
When you open your first investment share account with us you automatically become a member of the Society. Membership gives you certain rights, like voting on business matters and raising questions at our Annual General Meeting.
To be entitled to vote, you must be age 18 years or over and have total savings balances of at least £100 (at the previous 31 December). For joint account holders only the first named account holder can vote, again provided they are 18 years or over and have a balance of at least £100. As you can choose the order in which names appear on your account, it makes sense to consider this before you open your account. Every named account holder of a joint account can attend the AGM.
