Corporate Governance

Much of the day to day management of the Society is done by the Executive Committee, but the Board does operate four sub-committees to deal with specific issues.

Here you will find some key documenation relating to how the building society is run, if you have any questions or queries please get in touch.

At Darlington Building Society we are committed to encouraging a culture of openness, accountability and transparency to help identify any form of malpractice or wrongdoing.

Here is some useful information to help you understand whistleblowing and whether this is the most appropriate route to raise your concern or whether there are other, better suited options for you.

We will always aim to treat people with honesty and integrity, putting the interests of our members first.

We introduced a Charitable Assignment Scheme on 1 February 2000 to avoid the possibility of disruption to business from speculators who open savings accounts in the hope of receiving windfall conversion benefits.  We believe this benefits our genuine members and ensures that the high standard of service expected by them is not compromised.
