Reading Credit Union

Reading Credit Union aims to help you take control of your money by encouraging you to save what you can, and borrow only what you can afford to repay. They are a community savings and loan cooperative, run by members, for members. Members pool their savings to lend to one another and help to run the credit union. Interest rates are very low.
