At Scotwest Credit Union, we’re committed to improving the financial wellbeing of individuals and families across our Common Bond.

That’s why we’re coming out into your communities — visiting local hubs and centres to answer questions, and introduce the benefits of saving and borrowing with Scotwest.

We currently host regular drop-in sessions at the community venues where visitors can chat with our team to learn more about how Scotwest an help improve their financial lives.

If you think a regular Scotwest drop-in could support the visitors to your local hub — whether it’s a community centre, library, or support organisation — we’d love to hear from you. Centre organisers can contact us by emailing wellbeing@scotwest.co.uk or calling us on 0141 227 2390 to explore setting up a visit.
