“What they have achieved here is absolutely phenomenal and it is a testament to the hard work put in over the last number of years. The Credit Union has always been at the heart of Crossmaglen helping to improve the lives of local people and giving local businesses a leg up especially through tough economic times.

“At a time when confidence in banks is at an all-time low, membership of Credit Unions has risen and lending has increased across the North. It comes as no surprise that people are turning to their local Credit Union to seek assistance.
