Richard Raxworthy and Tom Dyer

For our last story of 2025, we bring you a snippet of one of Richard Raxworthy’s 600 oral history interviews with credit union stalwarts – on video. For the sake of posterity, in 1992, the Australian Credit Union Historical Co-operative videoed part of Richard’s oral history interview with Tom Dyer at the Historical Co-operative office in Surry Hills, where Australian Mutuals Archives is still based today.

Tom Dyer was a significant figure in the Queensland credit union movement. He was a foundation Director of the Queensland Credit Union League in 1964 and was on the Board of the Australian Federation of Credit Unions Ltd (AFCUL) among other important work.
