New Year, New Bank? Alternatives to the High Street Banks

Location: Catford, London SE6.
Many charities, community groups and social enterprises feel dissatisfied with the service they get from high street banks but are unaware of other options.
This afternoon seminar will give you the opportunity to find out about some safe alternatives to the big names.
· Want to maximise interest on your reserves?
· Feel your bank charges are unreasonable?
· Concerned about your bank’s ethics?
· Need an overdraft or loan?
· Wish your bank understood the realities of managing a charity, community group or social enterprise?
If any of these apply, come and meet representatives from three banks – Triodos, Unity Bank and CAF Bank – which were themselves set up as charities or social enterprises to meet the needs of third sector customers. You will receive clear information about their services to help you decide if they would be right for your organisation. You can also ask your own specific questions or get advice.
Free for full members of Voluntary Action Lewisham. Low charges apply for associate members and other organisations.
