Borrow fairly

Please note - Due to the Covid-19 situation the Churches Mutual staff are still predominantly home working. This should not adversely effect the smooth operation of the organisation but we do ask that you avoid sending information to us through the post as there may be a delay in this reaching us. We also ask that if at all possible withdrawals are requested before 11.30am if you require the funds the same day. Many thanks, stay safe.

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.

Savers and Borrowers Flourishing Together

What our members have to say

First rate service - helpful, friendly and efficient in equal measure.

We are glad for an opportunity to be part of the Credit Union movement.

I could not have wished for a more efficient system, nor for better help along the way.
