Williams, C.C., Aldridge, T., Lee, R. et al. (3 more authors) (2001) Local Exchange and Trading Schemes (LETS): a tool for community renewal? Community, Work and Family, 4 (3). pp. 355-361. ISSN 1366-8803
Abstract
This paper evaluates Local Exchange and Trading Schemes (LETS) as a tool for community renewal. Reporting the results of a comprehensive three-year evaluation of LETS that used both quantitative and qualitative methods, we reveal that although LETS are an effective vehicle for community renewal, many changes are required if these schemes are to benefit a wider range of people. We conclude by documenting these changes.
