๐ซ Illegal money lending is not just something you hear about elsewhere, it has been identified here in Fife, including recent action in Methil.
When money is tight and options feel limited, loan sharks can seem like a quick solution. But they often lead to far more stress, harm and long-term difficulty.
๐ค There is always a safer way.
At Kingdom Community Bank, we support people across Fife, including from our Methilhill branch. As a member-owned credit union, we offer fair, transparent and supportive alternatives - helping people move forward without pressure or hidden traps.
๐ฌ This is exactly why we created โTappedโ - a powerful youth-led film, made with young people from our communities, highlighting the real impact of illegal money lending and helping others recognise the risks.
๐ Watch the film and access the full toolkit here:

๐ฌ If youโre struggling, please donโt feel like you have to face it alone. Reach out - there is support available.
Together, we can keep communities across Fife informed, supported and safe.
