  • Frome residents invited to shape the nation’s future in groundbreaking civic research A major research project is coming to Frome, and local residents are invited to help document the town’s civic life and imagine its future. The project, called Civic Imaginaries of Frome, is a collaboration between the University of Glasgow, Frome Town Council and Edventure. Civic imaginaries are the different ways people sense, feel and dream about the futures of their places. This work is part of a four-year Civic Imaginary Partnerships study also happening in Chester, Glasgow, Hull, and Southampton. Between November 2025 and March 2026, researchers Dr Michael Howcroft and Dr Ellen Bishop will be in Frome, running activities that explore the town’s independent culture and the ways residents connect and co-operate with each other. They’ll be carrying out interviews and workshops and will be working with Frome’s voluntary groups. Everyone in Frome over the age of 18 is invited to take part.

  • Acclaimed choreographer brings new work to Frome for 80th birthday Famed choreographer and local resident Christopher Bruce is bringing his first new work in over a decade to Frome to celebrate his 80th birthday. Troubadour, a dance tribute to the songwriter Leonard Cohen, can be seen at Frome Memorial Theatre on 28th and 29th November, presented by the acclaimed contemporary ballet company, Yorke Dance Project. A long-time admirer of Leonard Cohen, Christopher was inspired to create a work to his music when he heard a recording of a live performance at the O2 Arena in 2008. He has set it to six iconic tracks – ‘Dance Me to the End of Love’, ‘The Future’, ‘A Thousand Kisses Deep’, ‘Suzanne’, ‘Boogie Street’ and ‘First We Take Manhattan.’ Read more on our website, the link is in our bio Pictures of a variety of York Dance Project routines by Mark Bruce
  • Local Jewish resident speaks out about living in fear A local woman has spoken out about living in fear as a Jewish resident in Frome, saying many in the town’s Jewish community have been hiding their identity amid a rise in antisemitism. The resident, who is remaining anonymous for safety reasons, told the Frome Times she felt compelled to share her experience and support the local Jewish community. She said the rise in antisemitism has been fuelled globally by the conflict between Palestine and Israel, and emphasised that Jewish people in Frome are separate from the conflict. “I wanted to say something about what has been the experience of people who are Jewish in Frome,” she said. “I want to call out for people to stop because whatever people might feel, we are just residents of Frome who are Jewish who want to go about our lives and join in with the community; we are not part of the conflict.” Read more on our website, the link is in our bio.
  • Frome Festival launches fundraising campaign with special concert Frome Festival is launching a fundraising campaign to raise £25,000 before next year’s festival, kicking off with a special concert featuring three locally based acts. The campaign, ‘25 for 25’, celebrates a quarter of a century of the festival being at the heart of Frome’s creative community, with events throughout the year. All monies raised will support growing the organisation, developing an education strand and maintaining its programme of free and low-cost activities. The campaign will launch on Saturday 29th November at The Tunnels with local acts including Tom Moth, folk duo māsa and a new soul/funk collective, The Juice. Tom Moth, harpist for Florence + The Machine, said, “I enjoy crafting sounds using various acoustic and electronic devices, so whilst the harp will be involved, the performance won’t strictly be a harp recital.” Tom, who moved to Frome a couple of years ago, said, “I love that there’s such a welcoming and proactive creative community. It seems like there’s always something happening, whether it’s a gig, an exhibition, or community-based activity.” Read more on our website, the link is in our bio.

  • New kitchen showroom opens in former Shoe Zone premises A brand-new German kitchen showroom has opened in Frome town centre in the former Shoe Zone premises which had been empty for ten years.

  • Town council votes temporary increase chair’s allowance Councillors at Frome Town Council have voted to give the Chair Cllr Fiona Barrows a temporary rise in her monthly allowance for the next six months due to increased workload. The £3,750 increase means Cllr Barrows will receive an additional £625 per month, which will come from general reserves, until April 2026. Councillors unanimously agreed to the rise at the full council meeting on Wednesday 29th October. Allowance Until May this year, no Frome town councillor had received extra income for the leader role. When Cllr Barrows became Chair of the Council, a £15,000 allowance was introduced for this year. It was introduced to cover lost earnings, as the role is estimated to require 2.5 days of work per week. With the temporary increase, Cllr Barrows’ total allowance as Chair for the year will rise to around £18,750, reflecting the extra duties she is taking on.
