Bank Well
Influencing 100 high-wealth, high-influence churches to switch to an ethical bank.
A rapid shift away from fossil fuels is required, but governments, banks, and oil giants are not reacting.
Many banks profit from investments in the global arms trade and fossil fuel expansion. In the 7 years since the Paris Agreement, the world's
60 biggest banks have put £4.5 trillion into the fossil fuel industry.
We want to change that story.
First step: Join us for our Vision & Strategy Meeting on Saturday the 23rd of March.
The Strategy
Churches leading the way
We believe churches are influential organisations that should lead the way on divestment from fossil fuels. Therefore, our aim is to support an advocate for churches to use fossil-free banks with ethical investments.
Our strategy involves:
Working with a few high-profile churches
Demonstrating the importance and feasibility of switching
Growing impact through targeting churches with significant wealth
