Who are Scottish League of Credit Unions?

The strength of the Scottish League of Credit Unions is in supporting focused Credit Unions, at whatever stage of development is deemed appropriate by the members of each Credit Union.    We recognise and respect the different needs and aspirations of individual Credit Unions and we do not seek to impose any particular model or developmental path.
