Thank You
• To Welsh Government for taking the significant step of investing in initiatives which
“enable” a stronger Welsh Credit Union community. Undertaking marketing on this
scale would have been impossible without assistance.
• The £1.2m investment programme has allowed us to seek out ways to partner more
productively, examine alternative infrastructure and to look at new product
opportunities.
• To all of you that actively participated in the marketing programme – You have
helped created lasting legacy and a strong case for additional investment.
Why is it important?
• The number of people excluded from mainstream borrowing is now over *12m.
• Not just people on benefits but those that have survived recession, changed job,
missed credit commitments, max’d a couple of credit cards and now getting back on
their feet.
• Restricted choice means you are vulnerable and that can rapidly evolve into
financial EXPLOITATION.
• In Wales only a little over 2% of people use a Credit Union.
• We needed to go back to basics… Start telling more people what a Credit Union is
and why we were different from other lenders.
