  • Documentary screening for Refugee Week To mark Refugee Week, there will be a screening of an award-winning film exploring human experience of war and its impact on individuals and communities. The film, ‘2000 Meters to Andriivka’, will be screened at Frome Town Hall on Friday 19th June at 7pm. Hosted by the Welcome Hub for displaced people, the evening is open to everyone and aims to bring people together for an evening of film and reflection. After the screening, there will be an opportunity for informal discussion for those who would like to stay and share reflections with others. Mayor Anita Collier said, “Refugee Week is an opportunity to celebrate community, compassion and the importance of making people feel welcome. We hope this event offers a chance for people to come together, reflect on the experiences of others, and connect through culture and conversation.” Read more on our website, the link is in our bio.

  • Over 200 patients supported at Frome cancer centre A cancer treatment centre in Frome has supported more than 200 patients since opening in January. The Systemic Anti-Cancer Treatment (SACT) Centre, based at Frome Medical Centre, is run by The Royal United Hospitals Bath NHS Foundation Trust (RUH). SACT is the use of drugs to treat or control cancer, including chemotherapy, immunotherapy, hormonal therapy and targeted therapy. Patients still receive their initial treatment at the Medlock Unit at the Dyson Cancer Centre at the RUH. Suitable patients can then continue therapy in Frome while remaining under the care of the Medlock Unit team. Read more on our website, the link is in our bio.

  • Payphone on Wallbridge Road could be removed A payphone on Wallbridge Road could be removed by BT due to low usage, with a notice inside the phone box indicating plans for its removal. One resident has raised concerns about the proposal, citing ‘patchy’ mobile phone signal in the area and saying payphones provide a vital and anonymous way for people to reach emergency services, mental health crisis lines, domestic abuse helplines and other support services. The resident said, “For residents, visitors and anyone passing through, that payphone is not a relic of the past, it is a practical backup that many people may not realise they rely on until it is gone. Whether it is a flat battery, a lost phone or simply no signal at a critical moment, having a working payphone nearby can make an enormous difference. “Not everyone has a smartphone and not everyone feels safe making certain calls from a personal device. Removing these phones quietly, one by one, chips away at a safety net that protects some of the most vulnerable people in our communities.” Read more on our website, the link is in our bio.
  • Personal best bonanza for Frome Marathoners Nine members of Frome Running Club completed marathons in April. Six runners tackled the Gwent levels of the Newport Marathon, and three raced in the iconic London event. In Newport, Michael Gorman’s time (3:10) earned him a PB, but a St John’s medical tent was required to revive him after the finishing post. Following a sugar and salt, he was right as rain. Paul Horton was next to finish, his PB of 3:12 placing him third in the men’s 60-65 category. Sam Baraud finished with a PB of 3:25, followed by Keith Vance (PB of 3:32), Ian Holmes (3:36) and Clare Dunning (PB of 4:12). “I knocked six minutes off my PB!” Keith Vance enthused. “I was going strong until my calf tightened during the last three miles. I couldn’t resist speeding up for the final 200m, but I cramped and hobbled over the line with the grandstands cheering me on.” Read more on our website, the link is in our bio.

  • Bristol’s multiple-sellout Cuban Extravaganza comes to Frome Festival! An evening of authentic Cuban music is coming to Frome in July as part of the Frome Festival. Buena Bristol Social Club, a collaboration of top Cuban and Bristol-based musicians in the Latin music scene, will be appearing at the Cheese & Grain on Wednesday 8th July. The band’s music is a blend of traditional Cuban rhythms, jazz and folk, with a unique Bristol twist. They have a wide range of musical influences, from the classic Buena Vista Social Club to modern Latin American music, and their performances are always high-energy and engaging. “The event will be celebration of the music and culture of Cuba, brought to life by a group of talented musicians who are passionate about sharing this music with the world,” said the show’s promoter, Good Shout Events."

  • Frome author’s Dickens novel attracts TV and film interest A Frome grandmother who faced years of rejection from literary agents is celebrating the success of her debut novel – and the prospect of it being adapted for screen. Author Annie Elliot has seen her book, Mr & Mrs Charles Dickens – Her Story – “So the world may know he loved me once”, win praise from high-profile figures including broadcaster Jenni Murray, novelist Fay Weldon and BAFTA Fellow Andrew Davies. A London agent has now expressed interest in the film and television rights. Despite numerous setbacks on her journey to publication, Annie said she never gave up hope of becoming a published author. The novel focuses on Catherine Dickens, the wife of Charles Dickens, whose story Annie felt had been overlooked. Inspired by reading Hamnet by Maggie O’Farrell, she began researching Catherine’s life and said she was shocked by what she discovered. Read more on our website, the link is in our bio.
  • Upstairs of former Halifax building could become flats An application to turn the upstairs of the former Halifax building into six residential flats has been submitted to Somerset Council. The application, submitted by Criterion Property Investments Ltd, proposes five one-bedroom flats and one studio flat at 1 to 3a The Bridge. The ground floor will retain two retail units, which are currently vacant. The Design and Access Statement says, “The proposals have been carefully designed to ensure minimal intervention with the existing listed building. The proposal includes the introduction of a single-storey extension to the rear, over the existing modern flat roof structure, to provide living accommodation for a new residential unit with associated new balcony area overlooking the River Frome.” Frome Town Council has supported the application and welcomed the building being brought back into use after it has been vacant since July 2024.
