The next Frome Town Walk will take place on Sunday 11th June.

Frome Town Walks are organised by the Frome Society for Local Study and take place on the second Sunday in June, July, August and September, and the third Sunday in July during the Frome Festival.

The walks begin at 2.30pm outside the Round Tower in Justice Lane and are designed to give an understanding of the development of the history and economy of the town from its foundation in 685 AD by St Aldhelm, through the middle ages to the present day. There is a special emphasis on Frome’s listed buildings with their broad range of religious and vernacular architecture.

The guides are Ruth Angel, Cliff Bawden, Alastair MacLeay and Janet Millar. Arrangements for special town walks should be made with Alastair MacLeay on 01373 836 595 or through info@fsls.org.uk

Copies of the Frome Heritage Trail (£3) and the Buildings of Frome (£9) will be available to buy.

Frome Town Walks are free, except for those during the Frome Festival, but contributions to Frome charities are most welcome. The dates of the walks in 2017 are as follows: 11th June, 9th July, 16th July, 13th August and 10th September.

Two Frome friends have raised more than £2,000 in an ultra-walking challenge for a charity which supports children and families during hospital stays.

Hundreds of cyclists have raised £4,000 for motor neurone disease research and support by taking part in a charity ride from Longleat.

The Lionheart Sportive returned on Sunday 11th October after a decade away, with 300 cyclists choosing between 100-mile and 100-kilometre routes through the hilly Wiltshire and Somerset countryside. The event was organised by Frome cycling shop Pronto Bikes.

A community project in Frome has supported around 1,800 families over the past decade by providing toiletries and sanitary products to children and young people.

  • Frome woman’s display raises awareness of baby loss

A display created by a Frome woman has given local people a place to remember babies who have died during pregnancy, birth or infancy, while opening up conversations about baby loss.

Charlotte Acerman, who works at The Cutting Bar in the Westway Precinct, invited anyone affected by baby loss to add a ribbon bearing their baby’s name to the display for Baby Loss Awareness Week.

Charlotte created the display after losing her own daughter, Cecilia-Grace, who died aged nine months. She said she wanted to give families a place to honour their babies and talk about their loss.
