Charity Bank is the bank for people driven to change the world.

We bring together passionate savers, who want their savings to make a difference, with organisations seeking loans
to create real change in the lives of people, communities, and the planet – both now and for the long term.

Vision

A society that fosters vibrant communities and a healthy planet, giving every individual the opportunity to thrive.

Mission

To support and strengthen impact-driven organisations that improve people’s lives, while empowering savers and investors to put their money to work for positive social change.

Our Values

Established in 2002 as an independent regulated bank, we have become a trusted partner for social sector organisations and people who want to make the world a better place.

  • Working in harmony: we are all part of a whole, one community working together and depending on one another to deliver our shared mission and vision.
  • Mutual Respect: we want to be known as an organisation that understands, values, and encourages difference. That means respecting the values, ideas, and beliefs of our customers, colleagues and stakeholders.
  • Being the change: through our choices and actions, we are being the change – empowering charities and social enterprises to make UK society a better place.
“Charity Bank is not an ordinary bank, we’re a community of people who are working to make a positive social impact. We’re here to align financial resources with values and a commitment to social progress.”
