A positive experience

I was told about the Pennine community credit union from a friend after moving out of refuge with my children after fleeing domestic abuse. The loans have been a huge help to me as I am in a council property that needs a lot of work doing to make it our home. Including flooring which is expensive. It’s very easy to do and the staff are easily contactable, the last 6 months have been made a lot easier with thanks to the pennine community union. I recommend the union to any one that listens.
