Public are asked to try out market
This call comes after an Amber Valley Borough Council survey found that from 161 respondents, 21 per cent were unaware the market existed.
The indoor market has been through a major facelift in recent years.

Its building has been upgraded to a higher standard, with a new roof, LED lighting, toilet block and individual kiosks for hairdressers, Gothic clothing, jewellery and cards opened.
A spokesman for the council said the kiosks were ideal for stand-alone businesses and the whole re-design ensured the market was more energy efficient and had a welcome, brighter atmosphere.
He added: “The market boasts 26 stalls and sells a diverse range of goods, including traditional local produce such as meats, fruit and vegetables and clothes. There is even a café which is now under new management.”
The market is open on Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday from 8.30am until 4.30pm.
