A note-able piece of Brixton history
The local businesses and residents coming on board in support of the Brixton Pound has been nothing short of revolutionary: it shows their tremendous dose of good will and vision, and a desire for a fairer economic system in which the diversity of our high street is defended and encouraged.
This is a little piece of history which we are humbled to be part of, but the sort of thing that often still goes on unrecognised, and which
is at risk of fading away in the aftermath of the recent sad turn of events which saw riots and looting within (but not only) our local community.
So if you haven’t got your Brixton Pound notes yet, this is your chance to own the Brixton Pound First
Edition collector’s set, before the notes expire at the end of September and our second edition is unveiled. You can purchase our First Edition collector’s set on line by clicking here.
Please make your order by Friday 30th September 2011 – and guarantee yourself a little piece of history!
All proceeds are reinvested in the Brixton Pound, a Community Interest Company (CIC 07635113), that supports local independent businesses and a stronger and more sustainable local economy.
