Cllr Jacob Taylor, Deputy Leader of Brighton & Hove City Council, has joined Wave Community Bank as its newest member.
Brighton & Hove City Council and Wave Community Bank have worked in partnership for many years to support residents across the city. This has included collaboration on the Deposit Guarantee Scheme, helping people access private rented accommodation, and Wave’s involvement in the Advice and Financial Inclusion Partnership funded by BHCC, which provides money advice and financial support to local residents.
BHCC is also an Employer Partner of Wave Community Bank’s Chorus Workplace Savings Scheme, enabling council employees to save and repay loans directly from their wages. This scheme has helped hundreds of employees build their savings and borrow affordably.
Jacob Taylor said:
“I’m pleased to support our local credit union and encourage others to do the same. Wave Community Bank helps many of the city’s residents, bringing fair, accessible financial services to them.”
Ann Hickey CEO of Wave Community Bank said:
“I’m really pleased Cllr Jacob Taylor has joined WCB as a member. Brighton & Hove City Council is one of our greatest supporters and we look forward to building on this partnership long into the future.”
