Leek Building Society
Your bank has room for improvement on climate responsibility.
Leek Building Society provides mortgages to individuals and is not engaged in commercial lending. It is great to see that the Building Society has developed a green mortgage product.
We would like to see it measure its greenhouse gas emissions and put in place a policy stating that it will never provide commercial mortgages to companies engaged in the fossil fuel sector.
Bank.Green believes that mass movements will pull us out of the climate crisis – and they’ll pull your bank out, too.
We were founded on the belief that banks have had an easy time from their customers for too long. Our mission is to encourage as many people as possible to take a stand - to refuse to let their money fuel environmental destruction any longer. Join us in building this movement by pressuring your bank to do better, or by taking your money to somewhere that cares about our planet's future.
