Since February 2023, we have supported the delivery of PR and communications for Great Western Credit Union (GWCU)’s first-ever Bond Offer raise. The Bond Offer, which launched in April, aims to make purpose-driven finance more accessible across the South West. This will allow the credit union to grow their digital capabilities and support more workplaces through their employer partnership scheme, Money@Work.
During the three-month raise, GWCU amassed over £1.4m from 215 investors and surpassed their initial target of £800,000 by 76%. Also, the raise received UK-wide investments showing the increased need for alternative finance during the cost of living crisis.
We’re delighted to have helped GWCU on their journey and we look forward to seeing them deliver their plans for growth over the next few years. See their roundup press release here.
