About FBM

Friends of Brixton Market (FBM) came together in the spring of 2008. It was founded by local resident Alex Holland in reaction to Lambeth Council's master-planning process Future Brixton, which proposed to redevelop Granville Arcade. The group was constituted in Autumn 2008 as a not-for-profit company. 

FBM is a voluntary organisation run by local residents, shoppers and people who love Brixton Market. We have a board of directors and a management committee. Read about our structure.

We are an open organisation that seeks to include all the views of Brixton's diverse community in the development of our vision and strategy. We hold regular public meetings and workshops. See our calendar of events.

FBM's aims

We have three aims:

  • To see Brixton Market survive
  • To see Brixton Market improve but retain its character
  • To ensure Brixton Market remains affordable and culturally diverse

We are developing short-term and longer term projects to help achieve these aims. Read more about our projects.
