FOUR members of the Frome Medical Practice have recently each celebrated 30 years of service.

The celebration took place in the staff wellbeing garden and was attended by many colleagues. It marked three decades of service for Lucilla Bevan, lead practice nurse, 30 years; Dr Helen Kingston, senior partner, 30 years and two months; Rosie Sandquest, nurse practitioner, 30 years and seven months; and Sarah Mould, care coordinator team lead, 31 years and three months, making Sarah the longest serving member of the team at the practice.

Practice manager, Karen Creffield, said, “It was a real privilege to mark an occasion as special as 30 years of service with four members of the team. They’ve all been with the practice through enormous change, both locally and nationally.

“Individually, they bring a great deal of knowledge and experience to the team. Collectively this is almost immeasurable. But what we all see, day in and day out, is their commitment to the team and to our patients and we are enormously grateful to Lucilla, Helen, Rosie and Sarah for all they’ve done and continue to do here in Frome.”

  • Mayor’s column

Autumn, in my view the year’s loveliest season, is now upon us. After the searing heat of the summer, the annual landmarks of changing leaf colours, harvest festivals and Frome Carnival all herald a more comfortable and serene time of year for me. I continue to spend as much time outdoors as possible and enjoy learning about projects that make the most of our lovely landscape.

  • Views sought on plans to keep local quarry open until 2055

By Local Democracy Reporter Daniel Mumby
Residents are being asked to give their views to keep one of Somerset’s main quarries open until 2055. Heidelberg Materials operates Whatley Quarry, located near the village of Mells to the west of Frome, which provides limestone for a wide range of construction projects both within Somerset and across the UK. The company secured permission from Somerset Council in late-July to reopen Westdown Quarry, near East Cranmore, which will focus on meeting local demand from the end of 2027.

Frustrated residents are calling for improvements to the town’s leisure centre, following repeated concerns about cleanliness and hygiene.
