Think you know about credit unions?

Think again!

Just here for small loans? At Scotwest we can lend you up to £30,000!

We encourage all our Members to save – but you don’t have to be a saver to borrow!

Old fashioned? Outdated? We offer car loans, consolidations loans, mortgages and online banking!

Just like a bank? Nope. We’re not-for-profit – any profits made go back to our Members.

They’re all about money, money, money. Wrong again - we offer grants to help organisations and charities in your local communities!

Come and find out everything you didn’t know about Scotwest at here Where people Count.
