St. Jarlath’s Credit Union Tuam is to merge with Athlone and Castlerea
The combined credit union will have assets of over €440 million and 80,000 members.
The Tuam members agreed to the merger at last night's AGM
St. Jarlath’s has been serving the communities of Tuam, Headford, Mountbellew, Glenamaddy, Dunmore, Williamstown, Glinsk, Abbeyknockmoy, Turloughmore, Corrandulla, and Moylough for over 50 years
Officials say it will create a stronger and more efficient credit union to serve the combined membership across the wider catchment area.
They add members’ savings and loan accounts will be unaffected
