A new community hub for Porth and the Rhondda Valley
Inside our Hannah Street branch, we’re creating more than just a place for financial services. We are building a shared space dedicated to the wellbeing and growth of the Porth community.
- Local group bookings: A dedicated, accessible area for Rhondda Cynon Taf community groups to host activities, workshops, and support sessions.
- A space for wellbeing: We want the branch to be a heart for South Wales collaboration, where local people can meet, connect, and support one another in a warm, face-to-face environment.
- Supporting local growth: This hub is part of our commitment to the Rhondda Valley, revitalising a long-vacant high street location to serve as a community asset.
Free access to cash for the Rhondda Valley
We are restoring essential services to Porth and making everyday financial tasks easier for local residents, small businesses, and community groups.
Our innovative OneBanx kiosks offer free cash withdrawals and deposits – even if you’re not an Ecology customer – simply by using the OneBanx app, meaning you can manage your money right here on Hannah Street.
- No long journeys to distant towns or expensive ATMs.
- No unnecessary costs for accessing your own cash.
- Convenient and secure access in the heart of the community.
- Support for all: Our team is on hand to help you get started with the kiosk technology.
