Children from Leominster Primary School and Nursery put their artistic skills into practice by drawing some lovely pictures and birthday cards to brighten up the branch and help celebrate the 50-year milestone.

Rachel Rogers the branch manager and the team at Nationwide are very proud to continue to support its members in Leominster and the surrounding areas with their financial needs.
