Community Savings aims to give help and support to financially or socially disadvantaged islanders, by providing access to basic financial services to those individuals who would otherwise be denied access to a bank account. We also offer financial mentoring, and budgeting and debt advice, as well as emergency funding by way of grants and low-cost loans.

A further aim is to improve the levels of financial literacy and understanding within the community, especially among young people, and post pandemic we plan to return in delivering money management presentations to school children in Key Stages 3, 4 and 5 when we are able to do so. We also work with other charities and third sector organisations to develop bespoke programmes to meet the specific needs of their service users.

Opening hours are between 9.30 a.m. to 12.00 noon, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursday and Fridays. To find out how to become a member, support the charity or volunteer please contact the Administrator.
