IF you need some money for Christmas presents, a new credit union link up could help tide you over.
Taunton Saving Together is opening at 10 East Reach from Monday to Friday between 11am and 3pm.
It is a one-stop shop for Taunton Deane and West Somerset and Somerset Savings and Loans credit unions, as well as other co-operative services.
Shop manager Jane Kilty said: "This is an exciting opportunity to build our community banking together.
"It is also a good time to open as Christmas is coming up and many people may just need that little extra to tide them over.
"It's really important to get the message across that you don't need to go to other well-known loan providers or get a pay day loan at huge rates of interest."
