As the bank grows and is able to provide support for more and more community groups, the manager and staff of this bank can see they are providing more than just a banking service, and are justifiably proud of their role in the community

The NCEL board also recognises how important professional banking services are for the community and endeavours to provide our staff with the best possible training available.

Board Chairman Jim McDougall encourages local people to come into the bank and meet the staff - "After all, this bank was set up by local shareholders to meet the needs of our community".
