There’s still time to enter a team for Frome Lions’ sponsored charity swim, which this year will raise funds for Dorothy House Hospice Care.
The event on Sunday 28th March starts at 5.00pm at the Frome Leisure Centre in Princess Anne Road.
In previous years, up to 48 teams have taken part, with funds raised split between the participants’ choice of charity and the Lions’ Charitable Trust – which this year will donate the majority of its share to Dorothy House.
To sign up, or for more details, visit www.fromelions.org.uk or contact Derek Storer on 01373 452350 or 07816 997930.
![Town-wide programme brings month of social activities in May
A month-long programme of activities and events is set to take place across the town in May as part of an initiative encouraging residents to connect with themselves, each other and local places.
The scheme, Frome Connects, will run throughout the month and includes a mix of social activities, creative events and informal meet-ups in community spaces.
Highlights include the return of Dress Up Fridays, which began during lockdown and invites people to wear formal clothing or fancy dress and turn the town into their catwalk each Friday.
Set-piece moments include a Kate Bush-themed flashmob (Running Up That [Catherine] Hill) on 30th May, followed by a bell peal at St John’s Church where the bells will play Running Up That Hill.
There will also be a whole-town drone photo on Friday 30th May, with everyone encouraged to ‘look up’ at around 12.30pm.
