Ann and John Jackson have had a long relationship with WBS, beginning when they first bought a local section in the 1970s. Subsequent building projects and mortgages were all financed through WBS, and an early ‘Daily Saver account’ has led to long-standing investments.

Through these investments, they have been able to act as guarantor when their children came to buy their own homes through WBS.

“It’s the personal touch that makes all the difference,” says Ann. “WBS has always taken an interest in what we’re doing, and does it’s upmost to support us. We also like that the funds are used locally, to help others just like us in the community.”
