About
Our Story
Derry Credit Union is a local, not for profit financial institution. We specialise in providing a great place for savings and loans in our community.
The Credit Union Difference
Credit unions are different from banks and other financial institutions.
Our Story
On 16th October 1960, the first meeting of Derry Credit Union took place. Attended by our six founder members, they pooled their combined savings of £8.60. Six decades later, our credit union has a membership of 40,000 and our common bond covers the entire BT47 and BT48 post code areas. Our assets are £116 million. We have injected £650 million into the local economy in the form of loans, dividends, and interest rebate payments. We have two offices and offer our members ten loan types, two share accounts, three insurance covers, and a digital loan service. As a member of Derry Credit Union, you are part of this success story!
Our Vision, Mission, and Core Values
We make decisions at a local level. Our members and our community are at the heart of all we do. Our vision, mission and core values reflect this approach. For further information, contact us by clicking below.
