A powerful 7.7 magnitude earthquake has devastated huge areas of Myanmar, more than 2,800 people have died, and hundreds of people are still missing. Many more have no access to the safe shelter, clean water, food and medical care they need to survive. Skipton Group has pledged £25,000 in vital funding to support the Disasters Emergency Committee (DEC) Myanmar Earthquake Appeal. We’ve also opened our doors to anyone wanting to donate in branch. Michaela Wright, Skipton’s Group Head of Sustainability, said: “We’ve all watched on in horror at the unimaginable loss and destruction caused by the devastating earthquake in Myanmar. Across the Skipton Group we want to help with the rescue and relief efforts and so have donated £25,000 to get much needed aid to those people and families who so desperately need help. The donations will go towards core relief such as shelter, food, water, sanitation, and education. For anyone wanting to also donate to the Disasters Emergency Committee appeal, you can pop into any UK Skipton Building Society branch to make your donation.”

Exciting news from our Savings Transformation team this week 🎉
I’m thrilled to announce that we've reached a significant milestone in our Microsoft Dynamics journey. We're successfully rolling out additional Dynamics features within our Customer Engagement Platform (CEP) to over 250 of our colleagues. Our partnership with Microsoft is driving the development of our versatile, AI-enabled CEP, which facilitates frictionless digital customer experiences, supported by our expert colleagues. This achievement has been made possible thanks to the incredible support and collaboration from colleagues here at Skipton Building Society and our delivery partner KPMG. Their expertise and dedication have been crucial in integrating new functionalities, enhancing existing customer journeys, and implementing new ones. Together, we're transforming customer interactions into meaningful connections and creating seamless, digitally ledexperiences. We look forward to rolling out these features to all colleagues later this year. Here's to more milestones and continued success! 🚀 Thank you Yogesh Anand Bharat Bhushan John Austin Katie Thomson Lee Stead Skipton Building Society Andrew Bottomley Joe Shaw #DigitalTransformation #MicrosoftDynamics #CustomerExperience
