We are delighted to announce that Metro Moneywise has partnered with four new companies to establish payroll deduction schemes for their employees.

 

The four new partners are:

Performance Doorset Solutions (PDS LTD)

Located in Littleborough, Rochdale, PDS specialises in supplying door and associated joinery items to the UK Constructions industry. We are excited to be working with a successful local manufacturer.

Stepping Stone Projects

Stepping Stone Projects provides accommodation and support across the North-West for homeless people and those currently at risk of losing their homes. We are delighted to be working with such a worthwhile charity.

Harp – Southend’s homeless charity

Harp provides essential services and long-term solutions to support local people taking steps to overcome homelessness. Another great charity we are proud to be working with.

Dr. Kershaw’s Hospice – Oldham

Dr. Kershaw’s provides free, specialist, end-of-life, and palliative care for adults with life-limiting illnesses in Oldham and its surrounding areas in a peaceful, homely environment. Metro Moneywise is always proud to work with Dr. Kershaw’s Hospice, as their work is valuable to the communities they serve.

What does this mean for employees of these companies?

Being a credit union member will enable the employees of these four companies to save money, get access to low-cost loans, and learn about financial wellbeing. Becoming a credit union member is an excellent staff benefit and can help improve the financial situations of everyone involved.

Regular saving via payroll deduction is recognised as a positive way to encourage greater financial sustainability. This is because it allows people to automatically put money away into savings, which can be used in an emergency or for other purposes.

 

What is Metro Moneywise?

Metro Moneywise is a not-for-profit savings and loans co-operative dedicated to promoting safe, consistent saving and low-cost responsible borrowing. By reinvesting any surplus within the organisation to our members through better interest rates than high street banks, the credit union helps to build wealth within the communities we serve.

Our payroll deduction scheme offers employees of these four new companies a chance to access and support an ethical form of saving provision, which will also make a difference to others. As our membership continues to grow, the credit union continues to expand its work helping low-income households escape from debt and take control of their finances.

Employees can join Metro Moneywise here. In the same way as other financial institutions, members’ savings are protected (up to £85,000) by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme.

 

We want to take this opportunity to thank our partners for their support and commitment to helping employees build a brighter financial future.
