The New School Year Is Nearly Here...

The school bags are being packed, uniforms are being ironed and many students are celebrating their exam results.

📚 £1,363 for Primary School pupils
🎒 £2,029 for Secondary School pupils

To support local families, Kilkeel Credit Union offers an Interest-Free Back to School Loan.

✔ Borrow up to £500
✔ No interest to pay

A simple way to help manage school expenses without adding unnecessary borrowing costs.

Back to School. Not Back into Debt.

The latest Irish League of Credit Unions Back to School Survey found that 71% of parents in Northern Ireland say school costs are a financial burden, while almost 2 in 5 parents expect to go into debt to cover back-to-school expenses.

With exam results arriving and children preparing to head back to the classroom, families are facing the cost of uniforms, PE kits, stationery, technology and much more.

That's why Kilkeel Credit Union is once again offering our Interest-Free Back to School Loan.

✅ Borrow up to £500
✅ 0% Interest
✅ Repay over 10 months
✅ Available to eligible members

Whether you're preparing a child for Primary School or Secondary School, we're here to help ease the pressure.
