The Brixton Pound (B£), a local currency for independent traders in Brixton is launching in the Town Hall this Thursday 17th September from 7pm. The B£ will support independent businesses by encouraging residents to shop there, knowing that there money is more likely to circulate locally than leak out of Brixton to shareholders in the city, global supply chains or national contracts. Research shows that only about 15-20p of every pounds spent in a chain store stays in the local economy.
Affiliated Brixton businesses are offering special discounts to residents paying for goods and services with B£s.
You can find out more and join the B£ 1000 club by signing up at our website here: www.brixtonpound.org and receive information about the scheme and special offers from businesses.
We are also conducting a simple multiple choice survey to enable us to measure the impact of the B£. You can complete the survey online here:http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.aspx?sm=XiAWcBH1vyc_2faZxZdycaYA_3d_3dand you will be entered in to a raffle to win free dinner at participating businesses Negrils and Opus Cafe.
Spread the word!
