IT has been confirmed, Father Christmas will be visiting Frome again this year to spread a little Christmas cheer and he is really looking forward to seeing everyone again.
Frome Lions president Clive Smith said, “We are really excited to welcome Father Christmas to Frome again this year. The float has been doing the tour of the town and surrounding villages for over 30 years, raising many thousands of pounds for good causes. So please provide your usual support, and Santa looks forward to seeing as many of you as he can over the two and a half weeks.”
