  • Under-14 girls crowned Somerset League Cup winners Frome Town United Under-14 Girls have won the Somerset League Cup. They defeated Midsomer Norton 4-1 on Saturday 18th April at Middlezoy Rovers’ ground. Two first-half goals saw Frome take the lead before their opponents halved the deficit before the break. Frome then sealed the victory with two more second-half strikes to lift the trophy. Frome will face Midsomer Norton again on Friday 8th May at 7:30pm at Welton Rovers ground with a victory confirming them as league champions. “All support would be greatly welcome,” said the club.

  • Bramble & Wild is back in Frome! Bramble & Wild has returned to Frome, with a new studio space in the town centre. The popular florists, which began in Catherine Hill in 2011, relocated to Ilminster last September nearer the site of their own flower farm. Now they have also opened back up in Frome at the Black Swan Arts Centre in Bridge Street. “Moving to Ilminster was the right move for our flower growing, but the link with Frome was very hard to break,” said owner Grace Salter Haskins. “With so many of our weddings, events and regular orders still heading back into town each week, it became clear we needed to find a way back. “We’re therefore delighted that Bramble & Wild has taken on a space in the Black Swan Arts Centre, where you’ll find us in Studio 4. Rather than a traditional shopfront, we have an intimate working floral studio, but you’ll still find it filled with the same thoughtful, seasonal flowers we’ve always been known for. “Kirsty will be leading things in Frome and will be in the studio from 10am to 3pm on Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays; we also offer deliveries on these days.

  • Frome poet brings stand-up show to Silk Mill An award-winning Frome poet is bringing their new stand-up show, Running Commentary, to the Silk Mill, where it will premiere on 5th May ahead of a 21-date UK tour. Poppy Burton-Morgan’s new show explores getting back into fitness and running after a decade without exercise. Organisers say, “41-year-old poet Poppy Burton-Morgan finds themselves newly single and hungry to return to pre-childbirth levels of fitness. Cue Rocky montage but with a middle-aged red-faced mum reciting sonnets on the South West Coast path. So far so solitary until they join their local running club and find themselves drawn into a world of flirting, friendship, fierce competition and the unexpected discovery that they’re ferociously fast. With their trademark mix of witty wordplay and open-hearted tenderness this solo show is a racy romp - don’t forget to stretch first. Read more on our website, the link is in our bio.
  • Frome Wild Bunch Column - Get sowing! Hi, it’s Jane here from the Wild Bunch. As we near the end of April and frosts are mostly behind us, it is the perfect time to get started on creating a nectar and pollen-rich garden by sowing seeds, whether in a pot by your back door, a window box, a garden bed or in a spare corner of an allotment or open green space. By attracting pollinators throughout the summer and autumn, we will be doing our bit to reverse the sad decline in the number of invertebrates – butterflies and moths, ants and spiders, bugs and beetles – in Britain. Nectar, which is sweet and sticky, attracts pollinators but is also an important source of food for insects. While feeding on the nectar, insects may also feed on pollen. Others, such as bees, collect it to feed their young. All will carry pollen on their bodies as they move from plant to plant, fertilising the flowers as they go, enabling them to produce fruits or seeds. Pollen-rich plants will also help bring in birds who will feed on the insects now and on the seedheads in later months. This has been recommended by the RSPB as a healthier way to feed birds in the summer months, as bird feeders can result in the spread of diseases like avian flu.

  • European champion and free girls’ sessions at Frome Skate Park A skate Jam event in Frome will feature a European scootering champion as a special guest next month.

  • New £30,000 Wakka Tag play attraction installed as children’s play sessions are relaunched A local soft play centre is relaunching its popular children’s evening sessions alongside the introduction of an exciting new interactive play feature. Club Boom, aimed at children in school Years 4 to 6, will return to Boomerang in Melksham from Friday 1st May and run weekly from 6pm to 8pm. The sessions offer a supervised environment where children can use the facilities with friends, providing what organisers describe as a safe and energetic evening activity. To mark the relaunch, Boomerang is offering 100 free tickets for the opening night. Alongside the return of Club Boom, the centre has also introduced Wakka Tag, a new £30,000 interactive game installed inside the main soft play frame. The system allows children to tap sensors, score points and compete against others as they move around the play structure. “Wakka Tag is designed to bring something new to every visit - encouraging repeat play, friendly competition, and a completely different experience each time,” said Gary Cooke. “With prizes up for grabs and leaderboards to chase, it adds a modern twist to traditional soft play - and early reactions from children have already been hugely positive.” Read more on our website, the link is in our bio.

  • Town invited to create new sunflower bed Residents are invited to bring their home-grown sunflower plants to a new community flower bed in the Mary Baily Playing Field. The new bed was created by the town council’s ranger team, with Ranger Mark and volunteer ranger Malcolm preparing the space. The idea was inspired by the documentary ‘Power Station’, screened at the Merlin Theatre in March. In the film, a community comes together not only to generate renewable solar energy, but also to plant thousands of sunflowers: transforming their street into a powerful, collective symbol of hope, creativity and shared action.

  • ‘Terrific success’ for Frome’s first veterans’ breakfast Frome’s first Veterans’ Breakfast has been hailed a success after more than 30 people attended the inaugural event aimed at bringing together former service personnel. The gathering at The Cross Keys pub in Blatchbridge on 4th April was welcomed by a five-piece bagpipe and drum band. Member Laurie Magee said, “It was a terrific success. The pub was filled with service vets from all three services who not only enjoyed a five-piece bagpipe and drum band to welcome them to the breakfast but a hearty meal and great banter.” The Armed Forces and Veterans Breakfast Club is a national organisation providing a supportive and welcoming environment for veterans. Organiser Alex Anderson launched the Frome group following the success of a similar initiative in Warminster. The Frome group meets on the first Saturday of each month at The Cross Keys at 10.30am, with breakfast served from 11am. Read more on our website, the link is in our bio.
