The monthly event, organised by a team of volunteers, aims to give a second chance to pre-loved items including household goods, soft furnishings, books, toys and clothes at very affordable prices.

The market will take place in the Burntisland Parish Church Hall in the town’s West Leven Street this Friday and Saturday.

The Big Green Market distributes proceeds from the event to local community groups and has already supported many organisations since it began last summer.

Last month’s market raised £1000 for the Wednesday Social Club, and this weekend’s event is collecting donations for the 11th Fife (Burntisland) Scouts Group, which includes the different age groups of Beavers, Cubs, Scouts and Explorers.
