Community finance doesn’t always make the headlines, so when it does, it’s something worth celebrating.
Recently, Derbyshire Community Bank welcomed Derby South MP Baggy Shanker to learn more about the work we do to support local people with fair, affordable financial services, as well as how investing in our team helps strengthen the organisation for the future.
Following the visit, the story was featured by several local and regional news outlets, helping to raise awareness of the role credit unions continue to play across Derbyshire.
While the visit itself was a fantastic opportunity, the wider story was about much more than welcoming a local MP.
The coverage highlighted:
For us, every opportunity to talk about community banking is an opportunity to help more people understand what a credit union is and how it can make a difference.

We’re grateful to everyone who helped make the visit possible and to the journalists who chose to share the story with their readers.
Positive coverage like this helps more people discover Derbyshire Community Bank, learn about the benefits of community finance and understand how credit unions continue to support people, families and businesses across Derbyshire.
We look forward to continuing to share stories that showcase the positive impact our members, colleagues and partners are making within our communities.
