Congratulations my friend. Well deserved!
Don’t tell me there are no qualified women to serve ont the board of Coop Bank. In this era it is a shame that this archaic patriarchal model of business and business management is still embraced in an exemplary organization such as this. I am absolutely disappointed.
Do your research Anthea. There are women on the Board.
