About us

All together, better

From the little to the life-changing, we make it all add up

We look after our savers and borrowers

That's what being a mutual is all about

We were founded in 1884 by local businessman, Thomas Mason Daffern, who created a mutually beneficial relationship between savers and borrowers to help the people of Coventry buy their own homes. You might hear us being referred to as a 'mutual', and this is why. 

 

As a saver, we look after your money and pay as much interest as we can. And as a borrower, we make sure your mortgage is affordable and offers good value, as well as providing great support if your circumstances change. 

 

We’re owned by our members. And because we don’t have shareholders, everything we do is based on your best interests. You tell us very clearly what you want and we work hard to take care of everyone’s needs.

Together for...
