Haringey Council and London Capital Credit Union are keen to encourage children to develop the savings habit and get some practical experience of numeracy. To promote this, the council will pay £20 into a Young Savers account with London Capital Credit Union for any child in year 6 or year 7 at a school in Haringey. Parents are then encouraged to help them start to save, manage their money and budget sensibly.
London Capital Credit Union is seeking help from schools to publicise this campaign.
Parents/guardians can open a Young Savers Account and gain £20 to open the account (external link)
Only one incentive payment is available per child. The £20 incentive may not be withdrawn for a period of 12 months from the deposit date.
If you can help year 6 or 7 pupils in your school take advantage of this incentive scheme then please contact the Credit Union at info@credit-union.coop
