(1)

We're a passionate and award-winning community-owned bank with a volunteer Board who prioritise members over profit. Covering Scotland's North East, Central, East and Borders regions, we help people by getting them into the habit of saving or accessing affordable loans. When you join CCU you become a member, not a customer. Your membership gives you a vote in how things are done and any profits are invested straight back into the Credit Union to keep interest rates on loans and savings competitive. We're the largest credit union in the East of Scotland with over 31,000 members. Membership is open to anyone living or working in Moray, Aberdeenshire, Aberdeen, Angus, Dundee, Perth & Kinross, Fife, Clackmannanshire, Stirling, Falkirk, West Lothian, Edinburgh, East Lothian, Midlothian and Scottish Borders. CCU encourages financial inclusion by providing banking facilities and credit to people that may have been refused elsewhere. Our aim is to encourage people to be responsible lenders and also kick start a saving mentality to allow our members to take control of their finances.

🔦 This September, we're shining a spotlight on savings.

Capital Credit Union is supporting UK Savings Week, the national campaign that encourages people to build better savings habits and strengthen their financial resilience.

As a credit union, we have been helping people save for generations, supporting people in building their financial resilience while supporting local communities.

This year, we're encouraging people to take simple steps to build their savings habits, strengthen financial resilience, and make sure their savings are working as hard as possible.

As customer-owned organisations, credit unions don't have external shareholders to serve. Their focus is on delivering value for customers, supporting local communities and helping local economies thrive.

Halls in a few weeks, and the list is already longer than anyone planned for. A laptop that'll last four years, course kit, an air fryer because the oven in the flat is more of a rumour, and a car packed to the roof for the drive down.

Whether you're the one going or the one helping, a Capital Credit Union loan lets you spread the cost over a term you choose. The payment is the same every month, so you know where you stand from the start.

Every new member brings new opportunities, fresh ideas and a stronger cooperative.

Growing membership isn't just about increasing numbers. It's about extending the reach of ethical, community-based finance to more people who need it.

Let's make this week one where more people discover the difference a credit union can make.

Every savings deposit, every affordable loan and every conversation with a member makes a difference.

Credit unions aren't built on one big moment. They're built on thousands of small actions that strengthen people's finances, support local communities and create opportunities every single day.
As a new week begins, remember that the work you do matters more than you might realise.

Here's to another week of putting people before profit.

Credit unions are about more than savings and loans.

Every new member strengthens the cooperative. Every saver helps build financial resilience. Every responsible loan helps someone achieve their goals.

Together, these small actions create a bigger impact, supporting individuals, families and communities across the country.

That's the credit union difference.

The choices we make today often shape the opportunities we have tomorrow.

A small act of kindness, a new habit, a positive decision, or simply showing up and giving your best effort can have a bigger impact than you realise.

As a new week begins, focus on progress rather than perfection. Keep moving forward, one step at a time.

Have a great week ahead.

Behind every savings account, loan, and payroll deduction is a real person, a real family, and a real story.

That’s why credit unions continue to matter.

Not because they are the biggest.
Because they care the most.
