15th April Announcements
Hi!
we now have, like, dozens of people signed up to Manchester LETS. Offers include ready meal making, pre-planted flower pots and staff spinning lessons! What can YOU do?
Sign up here: http://www.manchesterlets.org/localx.php
Meanwhile, Manchester LETS is now heading offline! We'll be running a stall at the Chorlton Big Green Festival on Saturday and at the Northern Quarter Street Party on the 29th April, telling people how they can get involved. All our events and meetings are now located on our shiny new events page here: http://www.manchesterlets.org/events.php
Is there a chance for us to give a demonstration of the LETS at a community group you belong to? Can you get a stall at a local event? Let us know: http://www.manchesterlets.org/contact.php
Our meeting went well as usual, next one is the 26th April in Costa Coffee on Oxford Road at 4pm. Minutes from the 12th April here: http://www.facebook.com/topic.php?topic=439&uid=117429654970367
So, starting to go well, I think. Spread the word!

14th June - Monthly Challenge!
Hi there everyone,
we've got well over 40 people now signed up to the LETS, which is more than many of the longer running LETS across the country. Your Core Organising Team is hard at work to promote the LETS and get some more people signed up, with radio interviews on Allfm and articles in the Big Issue, but we need YOU to start using the LETS so we can make it all we can. People like to see activity. :)
We are therefore going to write to you once a month and ask you to complete a Monthly Challenge, to encourage all of us to use the software and get a feel for it. This Month's Challenge:
Add an Offer: Look through the list of Offers that already exist that you, our awesome members, have posted here...
http://www.manchesterlets.org/listings_found.php?type=Offer&keyword=&category=0&timeframe=0
and then the list of suggested services we have here...
http://www.manchesterlets.org/pages.php?id=8
...and then add an extra Offer to what you've got up already. :)
And that's your Monthly Challenge!

HELP WANTED
We've got our publicity rolling along and the website is up and running, but we could really do with some help running an event. Could you organise a swapshop? Hold a little trading session in your workplace? We're looking for opportunities to help people get trading, and we would really appreciate some help. :)
Please contact info@manchesterlets.org if you think you could help us out.

LETS Meeting
There will be an organising meeting tomorrow at Nexus at 5pm, do come along if you would like to help us run the LETS!
Thanks for reading,
Sarah
