We're delighted to announce that First Trust Bank have selected Age NI as their new charity partner.

The bank, who have 15 branches across the country, will support us as part of a two year partnership.

As part of the partnership, we will be working closely with First Trust Bank to:

• Launch a digital ambassador programme, which will proactively encourage and support older customers to embrace digital banking.
• Support financial education, which will include initiatives to help customers improve their finances and capabilities.
• Enhance community engagement - Age NI demonstration days are planned and will be held in different branch locations.

Fundraising

First Trust Bank staff will also be participating in fundraising activities and money raised will enable us to provide a range of support, including advice, care and well-being services to older people, to help them stay independent and connected in later life.

Kevin Nealon, Head of Retail, First Trust Bank said:

“We are really pleased to announce this partnership with Age NI. We are excited about the plans that are in place, that will not only have a positive impact on our customers and the community across Northern Ireland, but will also raise vital funds for this admirable charity.  This partnership will help embed our purpose which is to back our customers to achieve their dreams and ambitions.”
