Who is Churches Mutual?

Churches Mutual is a mutual society, a savings and loans co-operative owned and controlled by its members.

It is an ecumenical collaboration between the Church in Wales, the Church of England, the Church of Scotland, the Methodist Church of Great Britain, the Roman Catholic Church in England and Wales, and in Scotland, the Scottish Episcopal Church and the United Reformed Church. 

All credit union members should share a common bond, in the case of Churches Mutual it is that they are lay or ordained ministers, employees or trustees associated with one of our partner churches. This includes local, regional and national church institutions, denominational charities, voluntary aided schools and diocesan academy trusts.

It is run by a small but professional staff and governed by a volunteer board, which includes accountants, clergy, former regulators and experienced businessmen and women drawn from the participating denominations.
