Pro Wrestling Rumble in Frome!

The world of CSF Professional Wrestling returns to Frome next month as CSF Wrestling kicks off its 28th year of live events.

CSF Professional Wrestling started way back in 1998 and have held thousands of Pro Bouts, leaving them one of the longest running wrestling organisations in the country. On Sunday 8th March the popular group return as The Cheese and Grain will host the larger-than-life superstars.

“Back by popular demand, the showdown events are a highlight of the wrestling calendar,” said organiser Stuart Natt. “Tickets are already running low as wrestling fans of all ages will again pack the popular venue to witness the high flying, body slamming action that only CSF Wrestling brings!

“A huge line up of top names are Ready to Rumble including the debuts of both Rhiannon Jade and Armina Lily as women’s wrestling makes a welcome return.

“These two top female stars will fight alongside international names such as European Heavyweight Champion Bullit; ‘Unique’ Jake McCluskey; former WWE star Joel Redman; ‘Bruiser’ Samuel Jacobs; and masked sensation Lion Kid, whilst several new names will also be in action.

“Many CSF stars have gone on to appear in the WWE; in fact just two months ago CSF regular Nathan Angel was signed by the American Sports Entertainment giant and will soon appear on NETFLIX each week on the WWE NXT brand.

“Fans of all ages are welcome to attend this family friendly event. Doors open at 4:30pm with Showtime at 5pm. The event will finish by 7:30pm. Following the event, the wrestlers will be on hand to take photos and sign autographs!”

Tickets £13 each, all ages. Available online from CSF: www.csfwrestling.co.uk or by visiting the Cheese and Grain in person, on 01373 455420 or online: www.cheeseandgrain.com

  • A pair of ‘Ace players’ at Frome Bridge Club

For the first time in history, Frome Bridge Club is celebrating its first pair of Ace-graded players.

Club Chair Ray Nicholson and Committee member David Clayton reached the English Bridge Union rank of Ace within a fortnight of each other in January, placing them among the top 10 bridge players in Somerset.

First to the post was David, when a Monday night Club Pairs score of 76.3% lifted his National Grading Scheme (NGS) rank over the Ace of Clubs threshold of 61%. Two Mondays later, it was Ray’s turn.

Both learnt to play bridge in their youth before taking a long break and resuming later in life. David joined the club after moving to Frome in 2023, and his rise to Ace-grade playing has been swift.

  • Rotary’s big quiz raises over £1,000

A big quiz raised over £1,000 for Frome Town Rotary to help the club continue supporting local causes and charities.

Held recently at Oakfield Academy, the quiz saw 22 teams play 10 rounds of questions.

Frome Town Rotary member Lorraine said, “22 teams cheered, groaned and laughed their way through 10 rounds of questions, including a great music round. The winning team was NBG, with a score of 81 out of 100. The Corsley Heathens were a close second with 80 points.

“Congratulations to them and a big thank you to everyone who came along. Just over £1,000 was raised through ticket sales, a licensed bar and a raffle.

“There were a lot of positive comments made on the night, with people saying it was a ‘great evening’ and that they ‘really enjoyed it.’”

  • Frome Wild Bunch Column: Setting up home

Hi, this is Jane from the Wild Bunch. 

After the wettest January on record, most of us are looking forward to getting out into the open air – whether to plant up a backdoor flowerpot or window box, visit one of Frome’s community gardens or open spaces, or to start work on our own garden or allotment. As we face a major biodiversity crisis, said by some to be so serious as to threaten our national security, every step – large or small – that we take as individuals to support wildlife is important.

This is the time of year when birds are busy setting up home, having traditionally paired up by Valentine’s Day. Do you have a bird box in your garden or local community space? If so, now is the time to give it a quick clean, so long as no-one has already moved in! If you have not yet got a nest box, this is a good time to buy one – or even make it yourself. The bird charity RSPB has instructions on its website, including advice on the size of box and shape of entry hole for different breeds. Alternatively, the Wild Bunch runs bird box building workshops from time to time – look out for forthcoming sessions on Facebook or email us (address at the end).

  • Frome chronic pain project links health and environment

A project empowering people to live well with chronic pain has been hailed a success.

Green and Healthy Frome partnered with Frome Medical Practice to introduce a Chronic Pain Initiative exploring holistic approaches to pain management.

Patients were invited to take part in structured medication reviews, explore alternative approaches to pain management and engage in the Ten Footsteps course – a supportive face-to-face programme designed to empower self-management and help people live well with persistent pain.

Pain Cafés also provided welcoming spaces for people to connect and share experiences, encouraging one another on their journey. The approach was not about reducing medication but about offering choice, support and the resources needed to live well with pain.

  • 360 new homes and country park planned near Frome rugby club

By Local Democracy Reporter Daniel Mumby with further reporting by the Frome Times

Up to 360 new homes will be built near Frome’s rugby club if plans are approved in the coming months.

Land promoter Barwood Land entered into a promotion agreement in February 2021 surrounding around 85 acres (just over 34 hectares) of land on the northern edge of Frome, between Frome Rugby Football Club on Gypsy Lane and the B3090 Oldford Hill.

The company, based just outside Northampton, submitted initial proposals (known as a screening and scoping request) in February 2024 to deliver up to 420 new homes within the land, along with significant public open space.

A public consultation event was held at the rugby club in February 2025, by which time the intended number of properties had been reduced down to 330.

Barwood Land has now submitted formal plans for the site, revising the planned housing number upwards to 360 properties – with Somerset Council expected to make a final decision by the summer.

  • Festival favourites Dub Pistols and Laid Blak to stop off in Frome

Legendary party starter band Dub Pistols will be rolling into town on Friday 20th March for the Frome leg of their Enter The Tour 2026. 

They will be joined by special guest support and Bristol reggae institution Laid Blak for an evening of dub, reggae, ska and drum and bass at the Cheese and Grain.

From their roots in the 90s big beat explosion to becoming one of the UK’s most electrifying live bands, Dub Pistols have spent nearly three decades fusing dub, ska, hip-hop, reggae, jungle, and drum & bass into their unmistakable sound.

With ten albums, countless festival appearances, and a reputation for chaos-driven live shows, Barry Ashworth and the Pistols remain unstoppable. Expect fresh tracks from their new album Enter The Sound, and all the heavy bass, blazing brass, and high-energy madness that makes the Dub Pistols legendary.

  • Paws, people and community spirit at charity dog show

Frome Football Club was filled with wagging tails and smiling faces as more than 100 dogs took part in a lively charity dog show in support of Dogs for Health.

The indoor event, organised to raise funds and awareness for the local charity, featured a wide range of classes, from ‘Prettiest Bitch’ and ‘Golden Oldie’ to many fun categories in between.

A spokesperson for the charity said, “One of the highlights of the afternoon was the Young Handler class, which showcased impressive handling skills from children working confidently with both young and older dogs. The class drew plenty of applause, celebrating not only good technique but the strong bonds between handlers and their canine companions."

  • From The Mayor

I’ve been reflecting recently on how exceptionally lucky I am to enjoy this life as a councillor and as your mayor.

In my council work, we’ve been reviewing all the applications for grants that are available to groups and businesses that need help. There are so many amazing projects in need of funds, which makes it all the more difficult to decide where the money should go. 

Mayoral events so far in February have included popping into Canteen to see dozens of people enjoying hot food on a ‘pay-what-you-can’ basis and watching our amazing Frome College students perform their ‘Back to the 80s’ show; it was brilliant! I visited Purple Elephant’s community day at the Key Centre and learned more about their work with families. There was a dog show at the football club with Dogs for Health, including stalls with goodies to buy, plus teas, coffees and refreshments. Another fabulous family event.
