Charity Bank in the North
In 2007 Charity Bank opened their first ever regional office in Leeds, to serve organisations specifically in the Yorkshire and Humber region. It has been set up thanks to a three-year £9.8 million investment by Yorkshire Forward, the first regional development agency to invest in this kind of initiative.

The investment is being used to finance Charity Bank in the North, a programme of finance and support that will equip organisations in the region with the information, skills and funding they need in order to become less reliant on grant funding, and empowering them to become more entrepreneurial in their outlook.
