PROGRESSIVE Building Society re-opened the doors of its Ballymena branch yesterday after a £1 million revamp. The new-look office - which first opened in the town in 1978 - offers members more modern and comfortable facilities and underlines the mutual society's commitment to investing in the local economy and helping develop the local high street. Progressive chief executive Darina Armstrong said: "We understand the importance of investing in the community and are committed to playing a part in the regeneration of Ballymena."
