Event organiser, Lisa Glass, says “Come on a magical evening walk and enjoy colourful displays in the windows and gardens of Frome in the third year of the event. Over 250 venues have already signed up to take part, and all kinds of delights are being created to brighten the winter night.
“There have been eight free community workshops held over the last few weeks to help people get inspired and start creating their window displays, and local Window Wanderland
“For the third year running, the wonderful people of Frome have got on board with this event and this year it’s going to be even bigger! We have lots more residents taking part in all areas of the town and there are lots more of the shops and businesses in the town centre taking part, particularly up Catherine Hill. Several of the schools are creating windows and we have Berkeley First School who will be showing their creations in the windows of the Persimmon Homes’ marketing suite at Edmund Park.

![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.
