Established in 1869, Monmouthshire Building Society is a purpose led regional building society primarily focused on providing residential mortgages funded substantially by members’ savings.

Our ambition to serve our members and local communities continues to guide our decision making and is key to ensuring we build a safe and sustainable business that our members trust.

As we modernise our Society, its important that we enable our members to manage their accounts in the way they choose. We’re committed to expanding both our branch network and digital capability to meet the diverse and changing needs of our members, helping us realise our ambition to be a truly modern mutual.

Our 11 branches and 12 agencies cover south Wales, the West of England, and border towns. We’re also supporting savers, home owners, and businesses across Wales and England as we continue to develop competitive products, including for our broker network with Monmouthshire for Intermediaries, and for our newly formed Commercial Lending service.

We embrace our Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) responsibilities, because we believe its more than a tick in a box: it is the right thing to do for our members, colleagues and communities.

Our ESG commitments will become the blueprint for how we do business, shaping our culture and delivering on purpose today and in the future.

Shelter Cymru is Wales’s national homelessness charity, founded on the belief that everyone has the right to a safe place to call ‘home’.

Each year, we help thousands of people who are affected by the housing emergency, across every local authority in Wales, by offering free, confidential and independent advice and support. We also campaign to defend the right to a safe home and fight the devastating impact the housing emergency has on people and society.

We provide specialist legal advice, information and support through our national telephone helpline, online, and face-to-face advice surgeries in communities around Wales. Last year we helped almost 18,000 people who were either living in bad housing, or facing/ experiencing homelessness, including more than 5,000 dependent children. That’s 1 in every 175 people in Wales.
