Central Liverpool Credit Union Celebrates Anniversary with Rebrand to Central Credit Union

Friday 1 March 2024

Central Liverpool Credit Union is marking a momentous occasion this year; celebrating 35 years of service to its community alongside a significant rebrand and name change.

Thursday 28 February marked 35 years since the credit union was founded. The organisation has also taken this occasion as an opportunity to officially announce its name change from ‘Central Liverpool Credit Union’ to ‘Central Credit Union’ reflecting its growth and expanded common bond.

Founded on the principles of financial inclusion and community empowerment, after three and a half decades of supporting the financial well-being of individuals and families within the Liverpool City Region, the credit union has seen remarkable success and growth. To empower even more communities, the organisation is expanding its common bond beyond the Liverpool City Region and will now cover West Lancashire, Wigan, Warrington, Chester, and Cheshire West.

“Our 35th anniversary is a significant milestone,” says Eileen Halligan, CEO at Central Credit Union. “It’s a testament to the dedication of our team and the trust placed in us by our members. This re-brand and expanded common bond signify our commitment to empowering even more communities across the North West. We’re excited to welcome new members and continue providing tailored financial solutions that prioritise their wellbeing the credit union slogan “people helping people” has never been more pertinent”

To further celebrate and give back to members, every month from February to September the credit union will be running a prize draw. Each month one adult member and one junior member will be in with the chance of winning £1,000 and £100. Members do not need to sign up for this, as the credit union will make the draw randomly from their membership database.

To mark this exciting new chapter, Central Credit Union will be hosting two celebratory events in February and September 2024.
