The Credit Union has taken delivery of a new roller banner, pictured left.

The new banner is a portable high quality display, it packs away into a compact case and can be put up in seconds with no need for tools.

The banner was designed for us by the Council design studio and has already been used at a promotional event in Keighley. Good communications are key to attracting new members and we think this eye-catching display is just the job. Look out for it around the district at future events.
