  • 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.

  • Local leaders meet for inaugural Frome Summit A meeting focused on strengthening collaboration between Frome Town Council and Somerset Council was held recently at the town hall. Hosted at Frome Town Hall and attended by MP Anna Sabine, the summit brought together Frome and Somerset councillors and senior officers to discuss some of the biggest opportunities and challenges facing Frome. These included housing, transport, health and wellbeing, the local economy and opportunities for young people. Discussions throughout the day highlighted a shared ambition to ensure Frome remains a thriving, creative and inclusive town while also addressing growing pressures around housing affordability, infrastructure and access to services. Leader of Somerset Council Bill Revans said, “It was fantastic to hear so many ideas about how Somerset Council and Frome Town Council can work together and to explore how we can strengthen our collaboration in the future for the benefit of our residents.” Read more on our website, the link is in our bio.

  • Kate Bush flash mob and town-wide drone photo Residents are invited to dress as Kate Bush and join a joyful flash mob up Catherine Hill as part of the Frome Connects project this month. Inspired by the resurgence of Kate Bush’s iconic song ‘Running Up That Hill’, the event on Saturday 30th May, will feature simple choreography from the original 80s video and will be led by Ginny Adams of Mojo Moves. At 12.15pm, St John’s Church bells will ring out with ‘Running Up That Hill’, performed by Tony Hodges, before local photographer Chris Bailey captures a town-wide drone shot at approximately 12.30pm. Participants are encouraged to wear grey and optional shaggy brown wigs although organisers stress that no dance experience or actual running is required.

  • Frome woman takes on open water swim challenge for women’s health A local woman with endometriosis is aiming to complete nine open water swims this month, reflecting the average nine years it takes to get a diagnosis in the UK. Poppy Taylor, a PhD student, started the challenge just six weeks after having surgery for endometriosis. Endometriosis is a whole-body inflammatory condition in which cells similar to those lining the womb grow elsewhere. Symptoms can include heavy, painful periods, pelvic pain, bladder and bowel issues, fertility issues and fatigue. There is currently no cure. Poppy said, “I first saw a GP about my symptoms at 19 and, as these got worse, I spent years going back and forth but with no answers. At one point I was misdiagnosed with IBS and essentially told I was making it up. It wasn’t until I was 26 when a scan for another health issue found endometriomas (ovarian cysts caused by endometriosis) that I was eventually put on the path for surgery.

  • Young rugby trio represent county Three players from Frome RFC Academy have represented Somerset at under-17 level.

  • Electric bus launched in Frome A new, 16-seat electric bus has been launched in Frome providing the town with the latest generation of passenger vehicles. Somerset Council has launched its first public service electric bus with the 30 service in Frome. The vehicle is low floor, easily accessible, wheelchair friendly and comes with zero emissions. The new vehicle complements the fleet of electric First buses already running on routes across the county. Somerset Council says it is a ‘lifeline’ for residents needing to reach town centre services and being electric, is more sustainable and less reliant on fossil fuels.
