Hearing from our Members makes our day 🌟

"I discovered Ecology Building Society through Ethical Consumer Magazine and opened two savings accounts with them.

As a smaller building society, they offer a truly personal touch. They are highly professional, efficient, and very helpful - always keen to assist with any queries or support you might need.

I was especially pleased to hear that Ecology Building Society opened a new branch to serve underserved communities - quite the opposite of what most of their competitors are doing, and yet so crucial!'

Thank you Lenka for sharing.

We're here to remind you that every little step counts! 🌟

Did you know that research from the University of Bristol shows a genuine positive link between saving and mental wellbeing? When you tuck away even a small amount regularly, you're not just growing a pot of cash, you're building peace of mind. Studies show that regular savers report sleeping better at night and feeling far more optimistic about what's ahead.

The best part is that you don't need to lock away thousands to feel the benefit. It's all about building a simple, stress-free habit that works for you.

Ready to grow your savings and boost your wellbeing? Take a look at our Ecology Regular Saver 🌱

We know how overwhelming it can be to watch the news and wonder what difference everyday life can possibly make.

The good news is that we've got more power than we think 💚

Did you know where your savings live really matters?

Research published in the 2026 Banking on Climate Chaos report shows that many major UK banks still invest billions of customer money into oil, gas and coal projects which are directly contributing to climate change.

But switching to a greener bank is one of the highest-impact climate actions you can take!

At Ecology, your money is used to support homes and projects that are good for people and our planet. That means you can be confident that your savings are making a positive difference for our future while they grow.

Let's back those that are leading the change, together 🌍

We know that keeping your home comfortable through shifting weather can feel a bit overwhelming sometimes.

That’s why we’re so excited to share the results of a new poll by More in Common and UKSIF!

It turns out 74% of mortgage holders are keen to heatwave-proof and upgrade their properties if their mortgage can lend a helping hand.

For over 40 years, we've been helping people to finance energy-efficient improvements through our renovation mortgages and rewarding you with interest rate discounts when your property's energy performance improves.

Curious about how we can help you make your home more resilient, comfortable, and ready for the future?

Imagine a world where your savings actually help to build the future we all want to see.

A fair society and a sustainable world 🌍

At Ecology, we've always believed that building a better society starts from the ground up - literally! From championing low-energy homes to backing projects that are good for people and planet, we're right there with you on the journey to a better tomorrow.

We're so proud to be shortlisted for the "Ethical Financial Services Provider of the Year" at this year's MoneyAge Awards. It’s a wonderful reminder of what we can achieve when our values align 🌱

Building a good habit doesn't happen overnight.

Whether you're saving up for a special treat or you just want to see your pot grow, the hardest part is usually getting started.

With the Ecology Regular Saver, we make it simple 💚

By setting aside a manageable amount (anything from up to £200) each month, you'll see your savings add up in no time. Plus, with our 6.00% AER*/ gross p.a.** variable interest rate, your money works harder for you in the background while you focus on building your 12-month habit.

Your future self will thank you (and so will our planet and the communities your savings help to support with Ecology).

It was great to welcome The Rt Hon Sir Chris Bryant MP, Secretary of State for Northern Ireland, Member of Parliament for Rhondda and Ogmore to our Ecology Building Society - Porth Branch.

As you might know, the last bank on the Porth high street closed nearly nine years ago. We're really proud to be bringing essential face-to-face banking services right back to the area, alongside ethical savings accounts and mortgages, and a welcoming space for the community to come together.

A huge thank you to Sir Chris for coming by to see us. We’d love for everyone across Rhondda Cynon Taf to pop in, say hello, and see how we can help 💚

Hearing from our Members makes our day 🌟

''I have been with Ecology for decades...
Knowing my savings are used for good is important, and knowing I can add to them or withdraw easily is also important. Ecology succeeds on all those fronts.
Highly recommend, saving for my children's future isn't just about saving in an account, it's about ensuring they have a planet to inherit too.''

Thank you Stuart W for sharing.
