  • Trinity First School pupils go back to 1912 for Titanic-themed day Pupils at Trinity First School took a trip back to 1912 recently when they took part in a Titanic-themed day. The children in Year 2 experienced first-class and third-class dining and recreated scenes from the ship using a green screen. They were also history detectives for the day and looked at the evidence to work out what the key reasons that caused such a big disaster. “The children have absolutely loved this topic and have had to call on all of their enquiry skills to gather information and form opinions,” says a spokesperson for the school, Sarah. “Dressing up and having a Titanic day is a memorable experience for the children which helps them to imagine what life would have been like.” Read more on our website, the link is in our bio.
  • Frome optician team member knits hats for homeless charity A team member at a Frome optician has knitted more than 250 hats for those experiencing homelessness locally. Specsavers in Westway Centre is celebrating the efforts of Lynn Beagles, the store’s call centre manager, who marks the second year dedicating her time and skills to raising awareness and providing practical support for those in need. “I love knitting and wanted to use it to help people,” says Lynn. “Last year I made 65 hats, so wanted to aim for more this year. I think it’s really important that we all do what we can for those who need it, and this is my way of doing that. I am looking for wool donations from anyone that could spare a ball or two to help with this great cause, so if you can, please drop any donations off at the store.” Read more on our website, the link is in our bio.

  • Appeal for support for Food at 5 Community Meals scheme Local charity Fair Frome is appealing for the town to support its Food at 5 Community Meals scheme following a rise in costs that has put the service at risk. Food at 5 offers a warm, safe and inclusive space to everyone three times a week across the town with a hot nutritious freshly cooked meal. The food is bought from local companies Ebbie’s Kitchen, Events Horizon and Improve with Food. However, senior coordinator of Fair Frome, Lenka Grimes, has said the scheme is appealing for donations of produce and funds following a rise in costs and an increase in people needing the service.

  • Frome Wild Bunch – Spring is sprung, the grass has riz: I wonder where them birdies, insects, and flowers is? Hi, this is Jane from the Wild Bunch. I have noticed that the days are getting longer, the birds are delighting us with their songs, frogs are spawning and flowers are appearing. Despite the days growing longer, the temperatures are still cold, especially at night: we still need to support our wildlife. If you can provide energy-rich food like fat balls for birds, keep ponds from freezing, leave piles of leaves, logs and compost as shelter, this will help nature survive. What signs have you noticed that spring is coming? What are the things in nature that make you smile and agree that spring is springing? One of the events that starts me thinking about gardening and planting is our very own Potato Day and Seed Swap event that took place at the Cheese and Grain in February. This year it was buzzing: Frome Wild Bunch had a stand there and I met some lovely folk talking about hedgehogs visiting their gardens and we talked about what we can all do to encourage nature in our patches. The Wild Bunch has many ideas and this year we are planning events to support our neighbourhoods to do that. Read more on our website, the link is in our bio.
  • Local MP visits Avanti Park School Local MP Anna Sabine visited students at Avanti Park School recently to talk about her educational journey and her career path to date. Anna shared insight into her daily life with Year 7 and 8 students, explaining what it is like to take part in parliamentary debates in the House of Commons, as well as describing some of the rewards and challenges of working in public service as part of the community. Assistant Principal Brendan Bayew said, “We are delighted to meet Anna and have the opportunity to find out about her ambitious career as part of our aspirational next steps for students into further education and the world of work. At Avanti Park School, developing a culture of high aspirations is an integral part of what we do.” Read more on our website, the link is in our bio.
  • News From The Clubs Frome Family History Group Frome Family History group welcomed Mike Nicholas to tell us about the work of the Commonwealth War Graves Commission at our new venue in the Cheese and Grain. The founder of the Commonwealth War Graves Commission (CWGC) was Sir Fabien Ware, who attempted to join the British Army but was rejected as he was considered too old at 47. However, he became the commander of a mobile ambulance unit provided by the British Red Cross Society. In this role, he began marking and recording the graves of those killed. In 1915, the Army Department of Graves Commission was founded. In 1917, this became the Imperial War Graves Commission and later the Commonwealth War Graves Commission. Ware ended the war as a major-general having been mentioned in despatches twice. Read more on our website, the link is in our bio.
  • New Edventure course promotes greener and healthier Frome Local people have launched three communications projects that show why helping the planet also benefits our health. Edventure launched a first-of-its-kind course with local participants called Comms for Change in partnership with Green & Healthy Frome in October last year. Participants on the course heard from a number of communications professionals about how communications can be used to encourage positive actions that help people and planet, and how to think about using these ideas here in Frome. The three projects they have launched are the Spring into Action group, the Join the Dots group and the Earth Hour team. Read more on our website, the link is in our bio.
  • Number of crimes reported at Frome Station decrease New data has revealed the number of crimes reported at train stations across the UK, showing a decrease in the small number reported at Frome Station. At Frome Station, the rate of all crime incidents per 100,000 passengers has decreased from 6.87 to 4.58 since 2023 according to data from the British Transport Police (BTP). The BTP emphasised that “every offence is one too many” in relation to the new statistics. A BTP spokesperson told the Frome Times, “The chance of becoming a victim of crime on the railway remains extremely low, and reports of high harm crime such as robbery and violence remain low at 2.2 incidents per million passenger journeys. It is important to not sensationalise these statistics and view them within their context. At Frome, which has just around 87,000 passengers per year, there were four offences, down from six.” Read more on our website, the link is in our bio.
