Wave Community Bank (WCB), the not-for-profit Credit Union serving East Sussex and Kent, is excited to announce its new partnership with Rother District Council (RDC). Through this collaboration, WCB will offer its beneficial Workplace Savings Scheme, Chorus, to over 250 employees at Rother District Council, which serves communities in 34 parishes, including Bexhill, Battle, and Rye.
Chorus: Supporting Financial Wellbeing
The Chorus scheme will provide Rother District Council employees with easy access to affordable loans and convenient savings options directly through payroll deductions. This streamlined approach not only simplifies saving and loan repayments but also offers access to a wealth of financial education resources. The goal is to empower RDC employees to make informed, confident decisions about their financial futures.
With Chorus, Rother District Council staff can manage their savings automatically from their wages, taking the stress and effort out of handling finances. This payroll deduction system is designed to support the financial wellbeing of RDC employees by making saving and repaying loans straightforward and hassle-free.
An Important Step Towards Financial Security
By joining Chorus, Rother District Council employees are making an important investment in their financial security. With the full backing of RDC and Wave Community Bank, participants can build a brighter, more stable financial future. We encourage all RDC employees to take advantage of this valuable staff benefit and start saving today.
This partnership not only benefits the individual employees but also reflects Wave Community Bank’s commitment to supporting local organisations across East Sussex and Kent. By implementing Chorus, Rother District Council is offering its employees a unique benefit that promotes overall financial security and wellbeing.
Building Stronger Communities Together
Wave Community Bank believes that by working together, we can build stronger, more resilient communities. Through Chorus, WCB is helping local workers and businesses thrive, ensuring they have the financial support they need during these challenging times. Rother District Council’s participation in this scheme demonstrates their dedication to fostering financial wellness among their staff.
The automatic payroll deductions make it easier for RDC employees to save consistently, helping them to develop healthy savings habits, build financial resilience, and create an emergency fund for unexpected expenses. At a time when the cost of living is rising, these benefits are more important than ever.
