COMMUNITY spirit and civic pride were celebrated at the Mayor’s Reception in Frome, when civic awards were handed out to those who have gone the extra mile for their town.
The mayor Dickon Moore handed out awards to Ruth Diligent and Samantha Bull for their work at Frome Community Hospital, John Birkett-Smith for his work at the Cheese & Grain, Richard Brindle for his work with Frome CIC and Fair Frome and John Fuller for voluntary work within the Frome community.
“All these people have given their time, energy and talents to help make Frome great,” said the mayor. “Without their input Frome would be a lesser place. There are many others who I’d like to thank; we are lucky to have such a lively and good hearted population in this town.”
