Hanley Economic building society

The Hanley Building Society is proud once again to be the main sponsor of the Potters 'Arf Marathon 2008  9 . Having seen record numbers of runners registering for the event last year (1,500) it's both a privilege and honour for us to be given this opportunity again. The Hanley has always been well regarded within the local community for supporting events and activities and the Potters 'Arf further demonstrates our commitment to our community roots in Staffordshire.

 

So who are The Hanley Building Society?

 

The Hanley Building Society is a Staffordshire based mutual building society. Established in 1854 by Earl Granville, the society has branches at Festival Park, Newcastle, Longton, Stone, Hanley City Centre.

 

We are a traditional building society that has always prided itself on the traditional building society model of lending only the funds it receives from savers and only lending people what they can afford to repay. The Hanley has the advantage of not only offering its own competitive mortgage products but also having the ability to provide mortgages from over 50 other mortgage lenders, thus ensuring the customer gets the right deal for them from across the market.

 

The Hanley also has a subsidiary company that through its qualified Independent Financial Advisers can provide advice from the whole of market on a range of topics from life protection through to investments and pensions. A common misconception is that IFAs are for the rich and famous but we you'd be surprised to hear we could all benefit from a financial health check regarding our protection and investments regardless of age or how much money we have in the bank!!!

 

Of course, The Hanley also offers competitive savings accounts that range from our market leading Child Trust Fund Account to our competitive Branch Regular Saver.
