A national award and a team effort. Congratulations to everyone across North West Credit Union whose dedication and commitment to our members helped make this achievement possible.

This prestigious national award recognises Credit Unions that excel in member engagement, innovation, operational excellence and responsible lending, while delivering meaningful financial support to the communities they serve.

Receiving this national recognition is particularly significant as it acknowledges the progress North West Credit Union has made in expanding and modernising its services while remaining firmly committed to the credit union values of community, trust and putting members first.

Over recent years, North West Credit Union has transformed its lending offering through investment in technology, enhanced member services and the development of innovative loan products designed to meet the changing needs of members.

The award also recognises the impact North West Credit Union continues to make across the communities of Sligo, Leitrim and Roscommon. From helping members finance important life events and personal goals to supporting local organisations and community development projects, our focus remains on making a positive difference in the lives of our members.
