Katie Waller, Programme Manager at Saxon Weald, commented: “Nationwide were very proactive in sending us information early on from the onset of the coronavirus outbreak and throughout lockdown concerning the COVID-19 measures that they were adopting.

“They managed to reassure us, as a client, that they were following government guidelines, had put specific contingency plans in place and gave us further information and links to their website.+

“The videos that they produced were both straightforward and informative and offered comfort in their processes at this worrying and unusual time.

“We have always been impressed with the way that Nationwide acts with integrity and professionalism. However, their recent communications have raised the bar even higher.”

Mark Lewis, Senior Commercial Manager at Sovereign, said: “Nationwide has tackled this very difficult period with their usual excellent levels of communication and prompt responses.
