Sunday 29th March – Free Market & Practial Squatting Workshop

rb — Thu, 26 Mar 2015 17:01:43 +0000

What is a free market?

A free market is a market where you can get clothes, shoes, books, furniture bric a brac, and it is all completely free. Anyone can come and even bring unwanted goods and services to donate, you can recycle all your old things and give them a new home, in the mean time taking away goods for yourself.

We believe in a system that isn`t based on hierarchy, money and oppression, everyone is entitled to food and clothes and shelter. Everyone has things they don`t want anymore, and everyone has things they need, so if we combine the two, maybe we can solve this problem, bring the community together and show that we will not be controlled by selfish corporations who put profit over people.

Come and see what’s on offer this Sunday when we’ll be open with tea, coffee, vegan snacks, and other wonderful things!
