Join Us Today
As a credit union, Cambrian Savings & Loans is owned and controlled by the very people who use our services. We operate with a clear purpose: to promote the financial well-being of our members and the community. Our operations are overseen by a volunteer board of directors, elected by you, to ensure we are always working in your best interest.
We've been supporting communities for over 25 years, providing access to ethical and fair financial services. All money saved with us is protected by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme, just like a bank or building society, giving you peace of mind. We also make saving easy through arrangements with over 50 local companies, councils, and health services, allowing you to save or repay loans directly from your wages. Any profits we make are returned to you, our members, through a dividend and better rates on savings and loans. If you live or work in Wales, we invite you to join us today!

Your Cambrian Credit Union savings actively support your financial well-being and the local area. Although our savings accounts do not generate interest, because we are owned by our members, when we make a profit, we share that surplus in the form of dividends. These payments are drawn from the Credit Union's successful performance and returned to you, providing a local, ethical return on your savings. This model is vital: it guarantees that our profits stay right here, circulating within the local economy to benefit the community as a whole.
Choose from Standing order, Online banking, or through our app. Or why not save directly through you salary through Payroll Savings.
