What Is The Story?

Dave Fishwick had officially made it. His business of mini buses had made him a millionaire. But in the 2008 financial crisis, he saw the impacts of his community who weren't as fortunate - unable to secure loans from any of the big banks. Desperate to help out his friends and neighbours, Dave decided to do something unprecedented, and set out to create an independent bank of his own that would help out the people who needed it. But Dave will soon discover that taking on giants is no mean feat. Can he fight for fairness?
