Everyone in our Credit Union is united by a Common Bond — and you can join if you live or work within the Common Bond.

Credit unions are not-for-profit organisations and are owned by our members. The common bond ensures that the savings of members of the community are available to fellow members as loans. The common bond is essentially people doing it for themselves. It demonstrates effectively how a credit union is a credit co-operative with members working together to achieve a better life for themselves.
