At Scotwest Credit Union, we’ve believed in the power of workplace savings for many years, working with over 150 employer partners across the country with Scotwest Save@Work supporting financial wellbeing in workplaces of all sizes.

Payroll saving is one of the easiest and most effective ways to create a regular savings habit, and it’s a benefit that supports both employees and employers alike. Check out our new video to find out more about this great benefit and how it can make a difference in your financial resilience.

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 below, 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.

As a credit union built on co-operative values we believe in
equity and sustainability; it’s in our DNA.

We know access to financial services is essential for dignity and a decent life, and that credit unions have an amazing opportunity as well as an important responsibility to bring about positive change. Our purpose is to broaden financial inclusion, promote our members’ financial stability, security and wellbeing, strengthen local communities, and improve environmental sustainability through fair practice and responsible consumption.

Less can be more. Simplicity, stability, community and resilience are our guiding values.

For us to deliver upon this purpose it must be infused in everything we do. It becomes the thread that links our strategy to our operations, our interactions with members and partners, our organisational culture and brand. It informs the way we do things.
