  • Christmas stories at local pub A Frome storyteller will share three Christmas stories he has written with audiences at a local pub this month. Mike Rogers will share his stories at The Crown Inn in Keyford on Wednesday 10th December, at 7.30pm. He said, “One story deals with the events surrounding the Nativity, but in a way which is likely to be unfamiliar. Another is linked to that fine old English Christmas tradition, the Mummers’ Play. The third takes place in a care home. “I have chosen three stories from those I have written over the past three decades and more, which will leave you happier after you have heard them. All you have to do in response is take that happiness away with you and share it with others. " Read more on our website. The link is in our bio

  • Impressive Frome win over league leaders Saturday 1st December Counties 1 Southern South Frome RFC 24 – 8 Swanage & Wareham Frome RFC welcomed Swanage & Wareham RFC to The Lane on Saturday and, with the visitors sitting at the top of Counties 1 Southern South, Frome knew they would have a touch encounter ahead of them. Frome started strongly and attacked deep into Swans half right from the kick-off. The first scrum set the tone, with the home side dominating and with the Swans pack unable to cope, Frome were awarded a penalty. Taking a quick tap penalty and going through a string of phases, the backline released centre Cory Plumridge to bulldoze his way over for an early try, the conversion being added by full-back, Max Stickley.

They are so cleverly decorated to reflect the aims or activities of the organisation represented. “We are really looking forward to this and we hope lots of people drop in to enjoy it. For seven days at the darkest time of the year, the church is full of light, leading us towards the hope and joy of Christmas itself.” Read more on our website. The link is in our bio
  • Football stalwart honoured at special match Local footballing stalwart Graham Clarke was celebrated for his contribution to the sport in Frome when he was invited to be an honorary mascot at a Frome Town FC game. Graham is a well-known figure in Frome’s football history after being a key part of the town’s football community for many years, having previously managed the Frome Collegians. He also trained footballer Tyrone Mings, who went on to play for England and now plays for Aston Villa. Graham’s dedication to the sport and to the local area was recognised when he was awarded the British Empire Medal (BEM) by Her Majesty the Queen a few years ago. To celebrate all Graham has done for football locally, Frome Town FC invited him to be an honorary mascot for the evening at the game against Larkhall. He joined local children from Frome Town United on the pitch and the crowd gave him a huge round of applause for everything he has achieved for football in Frome. Read more on our website.

  • Frome netball: Stars shine but late heartbreak for Hearts Thursday 27th November Frome Stars vs Spires What a treat to start a game in the dry! Frome got off to a great start, taking control of the ball immediately. Our pro holding shooting Nat held space effectively, despite working against a tall defender. Hats off to Nat for some great defensive work further up court too. The second quarter saw some lovely defence, with Chloe making her debut for Stars as WD. GK Freya and GD Lucy fell into a nice rhythm within the D, working together to pick off overheads and rebounds. Read more on our website.
