My guest on the show today was Alison Davies from Essex Savers net Credit union
A credit union is a member-owned financial co-operative, democratically controlled by its members, and operated for the purpose of promoting thrift, providing credit at competitive rates, and providing other financial services to its members.
In these difficult economic times many people are turning to some of the more predatory loan companies and paying excessive interest rates. Credit unions can provide an alternative to these, offering a more ethical and much cheaper alternative. Alison told us about Essex Savers and how it all works.
