More Than a Swap
BrisLETS is Brisbane’s Community Exchange (BLCE), part of the global Community Exchange System (CES).
Members trade skills, services, knowledge, produce and useful items using community credits called LETS Units, so you can get what you need without always spending money.
Every trade builds stronger relationships, keeps skills local and helps create a more resilient community.
