How to Join
The Common Bond of any Credit Union is the "link" that binds people together and enables them to apply for membership. Credit Unions are co-operatives - this means that we are owned, managed and operated by the members working together in order to help each other.
The Common Bond of Orchard Credit Union is:
"Members of the Orange Order, members of their family and friends, who reside within the Armagh District area."
