We’re for
winning awards for the right reasons

We’re for awards that recognise our continued commitment to ethical banking and for making a positive difference to local communities.

Since 1984, we’ve quietly been using ethical business banking to change the lives of people in the UK –
by only lending to businesses and organisations that address social, economic, or environmental
needs. We’re proud to be Greater Birmingham’s Business of the Year 2023 and for our
Excellence in Contribution to the Community award.
