THE future of Sustainable Frome, which hung in the balance after a shortage of volunteers, now has a bright future.
After a meeting to discuss the future of the group – following a call for volunteers – several people have come forward to save the group.
At the meeting, many people voiced their support for the group, valuing its voice in raising and discussing issues that affect the town and paying tribute to the history of initiatives that have come from Sustainable Frome.
“The next step is for this ‘committee’ to meet on 23rd August to plan the next few months,” said the group. “We envisage a similar set up with newsletter and shared food on the first Thursday monthly, but perhaps with a refocus. Could we galvanise support for a few key projects in Frome? Or will there be new exciting initiatives? Let’s see!”
A public meeting will be held on Thursday 6th September at the Good Heart Cafe, 7 Palmer Street. 7-9pm. The subject will be, “What if – a space to generate some crazy fun doable ideas”.
“Let your imagination run wild,” says the group. “Bring that idea you have been mulling over for a while. See what fires you up into action.
