  • Local MP visits Avanti Park School Local MP Anna Sabine visited students at Avanti Park School recently to talk about her educational journey and her career path to date. Anna shared insight into her daily life with Year 7 and 8 students, explaining what it is like to take part in parliamentary debates in the House of Commons, as well as describing some of the rewards and challenges of working in public service as part of the community. Assistant Principal Brendan Bayew said, “We are delighted to meet Anna and have the opportunity to find out about her ambitious career as part of our aspirational next steps for students into further education and the world of work. At Avanti Park School, developing a culture of high aspirations is an integral part of what we do.” Read more on our website, the link is in our bio.
  • News From The Clubs Frome Family History Group Frome Family History group welcomed Mike Nicholas to tell us about the work of the Commonwealth War Graves Commission at our new venue in the Cheese and Grain. The founder of the Commonwealth War Graves Commission (CWGC) was Sir Fabien Ware, who attempted to join the British Army but was rejected as he was considered too old at 47. However, he became the commander of a mobile ambulance unit provided by the British Red Cross Society. In this role, he began marking and recording the graves of those killed. In 1915, the Army Department of Graves Commission was founded. In 1917, this became the Imperial War Graves Commission and later the Commonwealth War Graves Commission. Ware ended the war as a major-general having been mentioned in despatches twice. Read more on our website, the link is in our bio.
  • New Edventure course promotes greener and healthier Frome Local people have launched three communications projects that show why helping the planet also benefits our health. Edventure launched a first-of-its-kind course with local participants called Comms for Change in partnership with Green & Healthy Frome in October last year. Participants on the course heard from a number of communications professionals about how communications can be used to encourage positive actions that help people and planet, and how to think about using these ideas here in Frome. The three projects they have launched are the Spring into Action group, the Join the Dots group and the Earth Hour team. Read more on our website, the link is in our bio.
  • Number of crimes reported at Frome Station decrease New data has revealed the number of crimes reported at train stations across the UK, showing a decrease in the small number reported at Frome Station. At Frome Station, the rate of all crime incidents per 100,000 passengers has decreased from 6.87 to 4.58 since 2023 according to data from the British Transport Police (BTP). The BTP emphasised that “every offence is one too many” in relation to the new statistics. A BTP spokesperson told the Frome Times, “The chance of becoming a victim of crime on the railway remains extremely low, and reports of high harm crime such as robbery and violence remain low at 2.2 incidents per million passenger journeys. It is important to not sensationalise these statistics and view them within their context. At Frome, which has just around 87,000 passengers per year, there were four offences, down from six.” Read more on our website, the link is in our bio.
  • Lions raise funds for air ambulance charity at annual sporting dinner The Frome Lions held their 17th annual Sporting Charity Dinner last month at Elmhay Park, Orchardleigh. This year’s chosen charity was the Dorset and Somerset Air Ambulance. A representative from the charity, Charlotte Humber, was in attendance and informed the guests that the air ambulance provides lifesaving, pre-hospital critical care to those in urgent need across Dorset and Somerset. She said that since March 2000, the air ambulance has responded to emergencies across the region, bringing advanced medical care to patients wherever they are. The dedicated teams include expert pilots, critical care practitioners, paramedics, nurses, and doctors, working together 19 hours a day from 7am to 2am every day of the year.

  • Assisted travel options in Frome Frome is host to several services designed to help residents without transport to access medical or dental appointments. Frome Town Council’s Assisted Travel webpage maintains information about some of the options. Cllr Philip Campagna said, “We’re fortunate to have good public transport options for a small town, thanks in part to Peter Travis, Tracey Harding and the fantastic FAVBUG team’s campaign to retain and improve local bus services. And we’re luckier than many Somerset towns in having a train station. However, for older people, or those with additional needs, and with our nearest general hospital in Bath, it can be really challenging to get to things like hospital appointments without a car. “Luckily, there are options for you – for most you’ll need to register in advance so it’s worth planning ahead. All phone numbers and links for individual services are on the Frome Town Council’s website, link at the bottom of this article.” Read more on our website, the link is in our bio.
  • Care home raises over £3,000 for Frome-based family support charity A care home in Frome has raised over £3,000 for a charity that supports local families in the region.
