Gatehouse Bank celebrated for Islamic banking and green savings

Gatehouse Bank has received two awards in the Islamic Finance News (IFN) Best Banks Poll 2024 and the 2025 Moneynet Personal Finance Awards.

IFN awarded Gatehouse with the accolade of ‘Best Islamic Bank in the United Kingdom’ as part of its annual Best Banks Poll.

This marked the second consecutive year that Gatehouse has received this award and the fourth time overall, following wins in 2020 and 2022.

Gatehouse Bank was also named the ‘Best Green Fixed Rate Savings Provider’ by Moneynet for its range of Woodland Saver Accounts.

Andrew Tebbutt, managing director at REDmoney, said: “IFN’s recognition of Gatehouse Bank as the “Best Islamic Bank in the UK” is testament to the Bank’s successful strategy and continued provision of innovative financial solutions for ethically minded consumers.

“IFN congratulates Gatehouse Bank for its continued success in a highly competitive and growing market.” 

Andrew Hagger, personal finance expert and chair of the Moneynet Awards judging panel, said: “Gatehouse Bank’s fixed-term Woodland Saver Accounts provide a wide range of options for savers, ranging from six months to five years, alongside a competitive expected profit rate.

“Additionally, the judges commended Gatehouse Bank for its simple application process and for providing customers with the option to have their profit paid monthly.

“Gatehouse Bank was the standout provider in this category, offering customers an excellent, no nonsense, flexible deal while at the same time boosting UK woodland growth.”

Charles Haresnape, CEO of Gatehouse Bank, said: “We are delighted to have started the year with these two prestigious award wins and are grateful to the team at IFN and Moneynet for their continued consideration.

“Gatehouse Bank remains committed to providing the best service for our customers of all faiths and none, as well as products which align to their values.

“We see both awards as a testament to the continued hard work our colleagues have put in to continue achieving this goal over the last twelve months.”
