Junior Savings: How does it work?
If you are already saving with the Cambrian Credit Union, you can set up a Junior Saver account for children up to the age of 16. Accounts are opened in the child's name, with the adult member acting as a trustee.
Regular savings must be paid into the account using one of the following methods:
By adding to your regular payroll deduction
By setting up or increasing a Direct Debit
The account will be managed by you, the adult trustee, until you pass control over to the Junior Saver at age 16. The account will then be converted to an adult membership account (although loans are not permitted until the age of 18). A copy of the Junior member’s birth certificate or passport will be required to open the account.

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.
Warning: Late repayment can cause you serious money problems. For help with your account please contact our team on 0333 2000 601, email info@cambriancu.com or visit https://www.cambriancu.com/contact-us . For financial advice visit www.moneyhelper.org.uk
