Buncrana Credit Union Limited was established in 1969 and operated from a rented room on St Mary’s Road, Buncrana. At that time the Credit Union consisted of 11 Directors, a Credit Committee, a Supervisory Committee and a number of other volunteers. The Credit Union was only open for a few hours each weekend and the directors staffed the office. At the end of the first financial year there were 662 members. Now there are nearly 14,000 members, 10 staff, and we operate from our own premises on Cockhill Road, Buncrana. Our common bond includes members living or working in the areas of Inishowen including Inch, Burt, Burnfoot and Bridgend.
