Local Councils

Delivering social impact is at the heart of what we do at Unity Trust Bank, and we are proud to support thousands of Local Councils throughout the UK.

Our Public & Third Sectors Team has recently been established to offer support to Local Councils and other specialist sectors. Complementing the service already provided by our Unity Connect team; the Public & Third Sectors Team work directly with local councils to discuss their options and solutions around savings and deposits, as well as assistance with more complex issues.

This new direct approach simplifies their banking, allowing them to move funds around as their needs dictate, giving extra flexibility and control; whilst also guiding them through some of the regulatory or process-driven tasks.

Local councils share our mission of wanting to create a better society by providing a range of services to meet the needs of local communities and improve people’s wellbeing.

We have a wealth of experience supporting local council customers. Through our deep understanding of their structure and the challenges they face, we’re able to provide a range of banking solutions tailored to meet their needs. In fact, our local council customers have given us an overall satisfaction score of 9/10*.
