A fee-free savings account designed for community organisations
If you manage the finances of a charity, voluntary organisation, or community group, finding the right place for your savings can be an important decision.
Finding the right home for your organisation’s savings isn’t just about putting money aside. Fees, access to funds and the support available when you need it can all make a difference.
