A new guide launching this month aims to make it easier for people in Frome to take action on climate and improve their health.
The Frome Green Directory, published by Green and Healthy Frome (GHF), is a practical guide to living more sustainably in the town, covering everything from cutting energy bills and growing food, to training, volunteering, repairing clothes, cycling more and connecting with nature.
Designed for everyone in Frome, the directory brings together dozens of local groups, organisations and services in one leaflet and online resource – from the Frome Community Bike Project and a local food directory, to refill centres, the Community Fridge, energy advice from Frome Town Council, and repair groups like Everyone Needs Pockets. It is linked to online resources so the information stays current.
Bella at Green and Healthy Frome said, “The Directory reflects a simple but powerful idea: that what’s good for the planet is also good for our health, our community and, most often, our wallets.
“Frome already has such an incredible community and active organisations working to make this town a better place. The Directory is a way of making all of that visible, accessible and, most importantly, in one place – so it’s easy for anyone to get involved, save money and live healthily and sustainably.”
The Frome Green Directory is available online at greenhealthyfrome.org and in print across the town.
