The Big Bank Switch
The UK’s big banks are making financing decisions that are causing harm to nature and fuelling the climate crisis.
Move away from a bank that funds fossil fuels to one that helps shape a greener future for God’s creation.
Make your Big Bank Switch Pledge! Explore greener options and start your switch today.
*Why are we asking you to make a pledge? There is power in numbers. Your individual pledge will be counted as part of our collective call for change and you can then make the switch at a time convenient for you.
The Big Bank Switch is coordinated by JustMoney Movement, Operation Noah and Just Love in partnership with Switch It Green.
