What Are NHS Loans?
Our personal loans are available to private and public sector employees, including people working within the National Health Service. Depending on the unique financial circumstances of the NHS and other employees, we offer fair and responsible lending options that don’t rely on traditional credit checks.
Instead of judging your application based on your credit score, we’ll assess your individual financial situation using Open Banking technology. This gives a clearer picture of what you can realistically afford to borrow and repay. That means we can offer more inclusive lending, even if you’ve had credit difficulties in the past.
NHS workers are the backbone of the UK’s healthcare system, and we believe they deserve financial products that work with them, not against them. Whether you’re a nurse, cleaner, admin assistant, or healthcare support worker, our NHS loans can offer accessible financial support when life throws you a curveball.

We understand that shift patterns and unpredictable expenses, as well as the pressures of working in healthcare, can make managing money incredibly challenging.
