We’re back in the credit union where the staff deal with all sorts of requests, and this week is no different. In Warrenpoint, entrepreneur Thomas wants a whopper of a loan for a business extension. He might have a successful business, but loan officer Louise still needs to tally everything up before she can say yes.

The Ballymena Causeway branch is used to handling a variety of requests, but this week it seems to be all about a new set of wheels. Jimmy from Cullybackey is in for a loan to buy a new car, while Pamela owns a restaurant and when the pandemic hit, she began to deliver meals on wheels. So she wants a loan to buy a shiny new van.

Back in Warrenpoint, teacher Nigel wants a new stove to keep those cold nights at bay, and former teacher Jacqueline is now a successful artist, and needs a loan to expand her work into homeware. Show less
