Our Enviro Saver is an online, instant account savings account. You can pay in whenever you want to whilst having the peace of mind that you can take money out immediately, direct to your bank account, if you need to. You’ll also be supporting environmental charities at no cost to you.
The charity to be supported by the account this year is the Green Light Trust. It was chosen by members, customers and the public via an online poll held in July 2023. The charity will receive their donation in June 2024. You can find out more about what they do here.

There is a commitment for the ‘overall rate’ to always be in line with or above our on-sale e-saver whilst the Enviro saver is on-sale. The ‘overall rate’ is the interest rate payable to the customer plus the interest rate of the charity donation.
Annually we will donate a sum equal to an interest rate of 0.10% of the average money held in the Enviro Saver for each 12 month period, starting on 1 June, to an Environmental Charity.
