Your Credit Union is the inexpensive option for small loans. If all you want is a few hundred pounds – to help with a new fridge, a short break, some house repairs, maybe to help fund a gap year – it can be difficult to find an affordable bank loan, so you could pile it onto your credit card – which often costs far more than the Credit Union – or you could go for a payday loan costing much, much more. Or you could come to your Credit Union. To join see one of the collectors after Mass or ring Bob Lyons 2369334.
