Are you interested in joining a new Credit Union for the Borough of Barrow-in-Furness?

A Credit Union is a way of giving all members of our community the chance to save small or large amounts of money and to borrow money at affordable rates.

A Credit Union is not run to make a profit. Any money made by the Credit Union is either paid out as a dividend to members, or kept, and used to expand the credit union's services, thus benefiting all its members.

Before the new Credit Union can open we need to find out how many people in the area are interested in becoming members. We do this by asking you to sign a Pledge form. Signing the Pledge Form doesn't commit you to anything. It just shows us how many people in the community are interested in joining the Barrow & District Credit Union. It’s very important for us to understand the level of interest that there is in Barrow & District. The Credit Union can only open if enough people want it to happen.

For more information and to sign the pledge, please visit the Credit Union Study Group website at http://www.barrowdistrictcu.org.uk/
