ON February 3 some of the children participating in the SaveEasy Credit Union-run savings club at Pembroke Dock Community School visited their local branch for a money-themed morning.
Daniel Jones, branch development manager, said: "We were excited to welcome the young savers' to our office so they could role-play what it is like to work at the credit union.
“We also put on a fun money-themed lesson highlighting the importance of saving. Each child earned a 'Gr8 Saver' badge for their contribution to the lesson and we've displayed all their hard work in our office too.
“SaveEasy Credit Union is committed to teaching children how to save during their formative years creating a habit that will last a lifetime. We are planning to continue our office-based lessons in the future."
SaveEasy Credit Union has two branches in Pembrokeshire: 18 Meyrick Street, Pembroke Dock tel. 01646 682389 and 16 Market Street, Haverfordwest tel. 01437 766114.
The credit union also provides adult savings accounts, loans and community accounts, all of which are run on a not-for-profit basis.
