Credit unions are ethical, member-owned financial co-operatives that offer a straightforward range of savings accounts and loans to people who share a common bond. This common bond may be where you live, where you work, or the organisation you belong to. There are hundreds of credit unions across the UK, all committed to helping their members build financial resilience.
To become a member, you’ll first open a savings account. Members can save regularly, apply for affordable loans and benefit from products and services designed to support their financial well-being. Credit unions are authorised by the Prudential Regulation Authority and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority and the Prudential Regulation Authority, helping to ensure members’ savings and interests are protected.
Liberty Credit Union proudly served the communities of Havering, Barking & Dagenham and Redbridge for more than 20 years. As part of its merger with Plane Saver Credit Union, members now benefit from being part of a larger, financially stronger credit union, with access to a wider range of savings accounts, loans and digital banking services, while continuing to receive the friendly, personal service they value.
