Emily Hughes, Colleague Wellbeing Partner at Merthyr Valley Homes and Thomas Bunce, Community Development Officer at Merthyr Tydfil Housing Association became MoneyWorks Champion’s in April, they are keen to get their colleagues saving and borrowing from their pay and promoting the scheme at their employers.
Delyth Shearing, Chief Executive said ‘It’s great to have Tom and Emily as MoneyWorks Champions from the two Housing Association’s in the borough. Both are enthusiastic about MoneyWorks Wales and the credit union and keen to strengthen our long-standing payroll collaboration.
And with the cost-of-living crisis still having an impact, being able to offer local employers the payroll deduction is a key part of the Credit Union’s core purpose to help build financial resilience for local people and communities.’
