Join People First Credit Union in celebrating National Cultivate week!

People First Credit Union is proud to announce that National Cultivate Week, a week-long celebration of the credit unions’ commitment to the farming community, will take place from 08-14 April 2024.  National Cultivate Week brings credit unions and their members together across the country to celebrate farmers and the contribution they make to our local communities.

How we’re getting the word out

Members can expect to hear about National Cultivate Week through a national marketing campaign across RTÉ Radio 1, print advertising in titles such as The Irish Independent, Irish Farmers Journal and Irish Examiner, digital advertising on agri news sites such as agriland.ie plus social media marketing on multiple social platforms. Plus, watch out for Cultivate media appearances on the national and local airwaves as well as across print and online media!

Don’t miss our virtual farming event!

We’re also really excited to host a virtual event on Thursday, 11 April which brings together an exciting panel of experts to give members exclusive insights on what lies ahead for farming in 2024 including Adam Woods, deputy editor of the Irish Farmers, Professor Karina Pierce of UCD, Philip O’Connor, head of farm support with ifac and of course Joe Healy, chairperson of Cultivate. Further details on speakers and how to attend the event will be announced in the coming weeks and we’ll streaming on our Facebook page.

To learn more about National Cultivate Week or how to access a Cultivate loan, please email carol.murphy@peoplefirstcu.ie or phone 057 86 22594.
