Who we are

People

A market is its people. This campaign is traders who've held their units for decades and teenagers who grew up in the aisles, together.

Two organisations. One campaign.

Around thirty traders and campaigners posed together in the entrance to Brixton Village, paper lanterns strung down the arcade behind them, market units either side.
