Anyone who knows me will be familiar with my enthusiasm for people doing 'stuff' at the community level. So, I was delighted to meet Susan Dryburgh, who is Fife Council's Credit Union Development Officer. Standing in the new banking hall at the Kingdom Credit Union in Glenrothes, the place was buzzing. From the cheerful volunteers manning the tills through to the customers opening accounts; it's terrific to see 'a community bank' making its way. I recorded a short interview with Susan and went over some basics about credit unions. Bottom line; if you can seek out and join your local credit union - you'd be doing a good thing. And Susan says it more nicely.

Hi Chris, I understand that you are planning a visit to our Credit Union AGM on Monday 23rd Jan. I would like to send a copy of my response to the consultation paper on the Credit Union Legislative Reform order which came into force on 8th January. If you contact me by email I will let you have a copy before we meet on Monday.
