Council's relationship with Credit Union(s) in your borough

Hello,

I am trying to develop a better understanding of the work of Credit Unions across London. It would be really helpful to learn how and/ or if Councils have relationships with Credit Union? If 'yes' what does that relationship include? (i.e. does the Council award funding/ contract to the Credit Union? Does the Council offer access to premises?). 

Thank you for any help.
