Credit unions offer an alternative to traditional banks and building societies for saving and borrowing.  They can sometimes beat the rates on the high street. The Stop Loan Sharks Team have partnered with over 100 different Credit Unions in England to promote responsible saving and lending.

This animation raises awareness of the benefits of using a credit union and avoiding loan sharks.
