Yesterday saw the first of a new Levenshulme market, located on the Station car park. The sun was shining and the crowds gathered, it seemed like a really successful day.
There were cakes a plenty, local artwork, all kinds of food, antiques and vintage clothing, to name but a few stalls on offer. I loved it, can't wait for next month's on the 23rd June!
Market organiser and occasional Love Levenshulme contributor Cormac Lawler was there promoting the Levy Time Bank. Timebanking is a way of offering your time and skills in exchange for someone else's- a great way for us all to help each other out. To find out more, check out the facebook page.
Cormac was also involved in the Levenshulme Portas Pilot video. The news was announced this week that although our neighbour Stockport will benefit from the scheme as one of the 12 towns chosen to receive the £100,000 funding, Levenshulme wasn't successful this time. However, all is not lost, as there will be a 'round 2' of towns selected, so let's keep our fingers crossed for that one.
