Our Team

Management

We are run and managed entirely by unpaid volunteers. Like every other UK financial organisation, we have a Board which reports regularly to the authorities (Financial Conduct Authority and Prudential Regulation Authority) and prepares the accounts.

The Board manages the activities of the Community Bank overall, while committees look after different parts of our activities and we have an Annual General Meeting each year. Click here for details

We are keen to encourage members to become involved in running the Community Bank either on the Board or on the various committees.
