NBS and Our Community

As a Building Society, we’re owned by, and committed to, the people who bank with us. That’s why it makes sense for us to put a whole lot back into the community.

Sponsorship is a key part of the NBS commitment to community support. For many years NBS has been a significant sponsor of healthy outdoor recreational, cultural and sporting activities.

NBS believes that supporting sport, cultural and recreational activities is a way of promoting a sense of pride in our communities and an attitude of success.

This is our place. And our history.
