STAFF at a building society in Warrington town centre will be opening the doors of the branch to customers this weekend.

Yorkshire Building Society, which is normally closed each weekend, is opening its Bridge Street branch tomorrow, Saturday, to help people make the most of UK Savings Week.

The annual campaign focuses on the benefits of savings, with staff helping both those that have not started a savings habit, and those that could make their savings work harder.

The branch will be opening from 9am to midday for existing members and new customers looking to open a new account or looking for help reviewing their existing savings.

The team will be on-hand to provide information on savings, open accounts and provide hints and tips.

Chris Irwin, director of savings at Yorkshire Building Society, said: “UK Savings Week is an important event in the calendar to help people establish new savings habits or make sure their savings are working hard for them.

“We know accessing help and support from our branch teams is important for our customers, so by opening our branches on Saturday, we hope many would-be savers who might need a helping hand starting their savings journeys will be able to take advantage.

“Helping people to save is a key part of our purpose at Yorkshire Building Society, offering customers a choice of access is vitally important.

“Making UK Savings Week accessible for our customers in a way that best suits them, be that in one of our branches, online or via our app, supports our aim to continue to provide real help to our customers and members.”
