Trust Leeds: digital health score 70/100

We reviewed Trust Leeds (trustleeds.org.uk) for the SME Lender Digital Audit, Credit Canary’s independent study of 104 UK SME lenders built only from public information. Trust Leeds’s digital health score is 70 out of 100: the middle of the pack, and 40th of 94 overall. Measured across the set, Trust Leeds is in line with the sector median of 69. Its strongest area is findability, at 88 out of 100, a touch above the 81 SME lender average, so showing up and making sense to Google is already working. The biggest gain is in mobile speed: 54 against the 57 average, and the quickest way to climb the table.

Findability scored 88, 7 points above the 81 average, covering showing up and making sense to Google. On mobile speed, Trust Leeds scored 54, a little below the 57 average (how fast the site feels on a phone). Measurement: 55 out of 100, 4 points above the 51 SME lender average. That covers whether the firm can see what is working. For accessibility, 89 out of 100 is just above the 87 average: being usable for everyone, an Equality Act duty.
