Stalls selling everything from Caribbean food to crafts will be part of the event in Crookes, from 1-4pm in the car park behind The Punchbowl pub on Crookes.

It has been organised by Crookes Forum following the success of the area’s first community market in October,

Crookes Coun Anne Murphy said: “We were delighted with the response to the street market, which brought a noticeable increase in visitors to the area and a boost to local businesses.”
