DEALERS will be trading in clogs at the first Wigan and Leigh Local Exchange Trading Systems fair on Saturday.

The event, which runs from 10am to 2pm at Ince Community Centre, follows on from the successful LETS awareness day in January, at which numerous people subscribed to the scheme to buy and sell goods and services in their own local currency - clogs.

The day will give people the chance to buy items using the currency from the many stalls offering home cooking, crafts, aromatherapy, second hand books and toys and clothing.

As well as live entertainment and refreshments, the first local LETS directory advertising members offers and requests will be launched.

There will also be a chance for new members to sign up. The event is free for both participants and stall holders.
