Do you need cash for a project in your community?
As a strong regional
Building Society with our roots firmly in the local community, The Loughborough
is keen to help those who help put something back into the communities in which
they live and we serve.
This is why we give
Community Matters awards of up to £500 to community groups and organisations
who share our commitment to looking after and improving things that really
matter in our day to day lives.
It doesn't matter whether
your organisation is large or small, a registered charity or not, we'd like to
help you, help the community.
