Our main Market Event Day is at the Albion Peace Hall, 102 Macdonald Street Windsor
Jun 30 Sun Northey St City Farm Market Info Stall @ Northey Street City Farm Sunday Markets Jun 30 @ 7:00 am – 12:00 pm 
BrisLETS’ Sunday Market Information Stall at Northey Street City Farm
Why not drop in and join the roster for an hour, do some shopping, get a chai and talk to people about our great organisation and the virtues of mutual credit!?
Rob Vidovic, Simon Cole and other local members will be there under our marquee lent by the generous Andrew Gaydon. Come along and take over for an hour to give us a coffee break!
NSCF has given us a great opportunity with a special deal because we’re a not-for-profit; a negligible charge for the space IN UNITS. This will change when it becomes a regular, weekly stall. How about making that come true!? NSCF Sunday Market customers are low-hanging fruit for LET/CES – there are lots of people there who understand it and just want to see it work for them well. With more member-volunteers pitching in a little of your time, rotating set up and pack up each week, we can achieve an on-going presence there. We have a custom marquee-cover, flags, flyers and other marketing material in the pipeline. We may have WiFi there for Internet connection included. It rarely comes better than this for a LETS group.
People with some computer and smartphone skills will be a great help; showing customers how to use the software and joining them up online on the day. If you need training, think about joining a session learning the basics with Simon in the first week of every month at a convenient location – check this website calendar for the latest details. The next one is June 4th on Tuesday. RSVP on the page.

Jul 2 Tue Promoting BrisLETS at Substation33
For 10-15 minutes, we will have the eyes and ears of the staff, employees and volunteers of this excellent enterprise in Kingston. It’s a hacker-space with an emphasis on recycling, especially e-waste. There are a number of ways BrisLETS and Substation33 can collaborate to mutual benefit. Firstly, I will be telling their volunteers what’s in it for them, which may encourage Substation33 to join us and pay them in Units. As a business offering electrical goods, Substation33 can supply BrisLETS admin and its individual and company traders (such as FoodConnect).
