"Wirkin thegither fer a' tha fowk" 

History: SLEMISH n tha BRAID Credit Union Ltd was formed on the 1st October 2007. It was the merging of two credit unions, Braid Credit Union Ltd and Slemish Credit Union Ltd who, although having their own history, have the one aim and that is to give the local area that covers their Common Bond a service by giving them a means to save and affordable loans to people who would find it hard to get this service in the high street.

CREDIT UNION PRINCIPLES
not for profit
not for charity
but for service
in every Credit Union
ownership is CO-OPERATIVE
control is DEMOCRATIC
focus is MUTUAL

A Credit Union is a group of people who join together to save money and then loan it out to each other at a small cost. This is called a "common bond" - the common bond can be work mates, union members, council estates, whole towns, or in our case "anyone who lives or works within the defined area".

The whole ethos behind Credit Unions is a local group of people helping each other. By doing this it also strengthens the local economy as people can buy extras or use local firms and this in turn builds more jobs as its presence affects the whole area. Unlike a conventional Bank a Credit Union is run by the people who use it - "a true shareholder democracy" in action!

It is a conventional and safe way to put some money away for the future and young savers are getting into the habit of saving for the future.

You are protected by loan insurance for free and no-one takes on your debit after your bereavement and your shares are passed on to your nomination.

We would like to thank all of our VOLUNTEERS without them we would not be here today.
