Banks and Building Societies
It isn't local and there are no branches but it is a fascinating departure from the run of the mill high street institutions. Their focus is to "promote an ecological approach to the built environment in the UK, and thereby foster sustainable communities". You aren't going to get convenience or the best rates but if you are interested in the environment and diversity with high ethical standards then this may be for you. 0845 674 5566.
Credit Unions

24 Mawdsley Street, Bolton, BL1 1LF. Tel: 01204 365024. Not for profit credit union offering savings and loans services. Open to all residents of Bolton borough.
Insurance
0800 756 8020. Low cost (comparatively) but anything but cheap in terms of service and policies, LV= is a mutual society and that difference shows. LV= partner with the CSMA and some unions which gets you bigger discounts and extras. Personally recommended for car insurance.
