Registration is now open for the 2019 Gathering for Save Our Bank supporters and members of the Customer Union.
The Gathering will take place on the afternoon of Saturday 16th November in The Loft, Ziferblat HQ, 3 Oxford Court, Bishopsgate, Manchester M2 3WQ (note change of venue)
Attendance will also be possible by Zoom videoconferencing from laptop, tablet or smartphone, or by dialling in.
As those who have attended previous meetings will know, the Gathering is a great chance to review what our campaign has achieved so far and have a detailed discussion about our strategy for the coming years.
We are hoping to have a representative from the Co-operative Bank once again joining us for part of the meeting, to hear about latest developments at the bank and its future plans, and to put them on the spot with our questions.
We will discuss our evolving relationship with the bank and we will look at the implications for a potential change in owenrship once the bank returns to profit.
Registration is free, with a suggested donation of £6 to help with food and venue hire for those that can contribute.
