Thought I'd give a plug for the Unity Trust Bank who have served Withington Co-op Party well and with no bank charges over the years. It's not a capitalist bank as the shareholders are trade unions (73.4 pct) and the Co-operative Bank (26.6 pct). Set up 23 years ago, it handles accounts for charities, trade union branches, credit unions and membership organisations. HQ is in Birmingham but you can pay your cheques into at a high street bank of your choice and do everything else online. They also send out regular informative newsletters, not leaflets to take out loans. Link
