  • Concert to raise funds for church renovation A gala to raise funds for a major church renovation project is being held on Sunday 19th April. The concert, titled Glorious Baroque, will take place at Christ Church to support Christ Church Future, a project focused on roof repairs and improvements to the main entrance to provide easy access for everyone. The church has applied for permission for the work and hopes renovations will begin in the autumn. The evening will start with a celebratory reception of fizz and canapés, sponsored by Wayne Kelly Independent Funeral Directors and Latham Scaffolding Ltd, followed by performances from professional musicians giving their time for the cause. Violinist Lucy Hewson will play parts from Vivaldi’s Four Seasons, alongside other musicians and soprano Hannah Drury performing operatic arias. Church Warden Alan Burgess said, “We are so grateful to the musicians for giving their time and offering such a wonderful musical feast. We hope lots of people will join us for what is sure to be a fabulous evening.” Read more on our website, the link is in our bio. Pictured: Alison Townley, planner of the Christ Church Gala concert
  • Residents urge ‘stronger’ bypass safety measures Residents have said Somerset Council’s plans to improve safety on the Frome bypass do not go far enough, calling for stronger measures to be introduced. Last month, Somerset Council shared proposals for the A361 Frome bypass following five fatalities in five years. The plans include lowering the speed limit from 60mph to 50mph, introducing central hatching to narrow lanes where possible, cutting back vegetation to improve visibility, and upgrading road markings. Residents say the measures will have little impact on reducing the risk of serious accidents. One said, “The reduction in speed limit of 10 miles per hour, with no monitoring measures in place, will have little impact. When we are talking about fatalities, I would want to see stronger measures put in place, and it is disappointing that such measures are not being implemented.” Read more on our website, the link is in our bio.

  • Local vintage transport gathering back this month The Westbury Transport and Vintage Gathering will return this month for its 32nd year, showcasing military vehicles, stationary engines, tract-ors, bikes, motorbikes and stalls. The event takes place over the weekend of Saturday 25th and Sunday 26th April at the top field off Westbury Road, near the junction with The Hollow, BA13 4TT. Event organiser Keith Miller described it as “a great day out for all the family.” He said, “A short time ago we were able to enjoy the magnificent ploughing match on the opposite side of the road, and we are similarly looking forward to our event. “No red tape, just turn up. A plaque is always awarded to a notable exhibitor. Last year it went to Ray Davies of Bratton for his continual support and interest.” Read more on our website, the link is in our bio.
  • Town Council bins to be managed by new contractor A new contractor has been appointed to manage waste across the open spaces run by Frome Town Council, following ongoing con-cerns from residents about overflowing bins. Councillors voted unanimously at the Full Council meeting on 25th March to award the £56,000 contract to Busy Bees, following issues with bin collections under former contractor idverde and a subsequent nine-month agreement with Somerset Council. The town council said there were concerns that bins remained unemptied for consecutive days during both these arrangements. Environment Manager Rob Holden said he was hopeful the new contract would make a significant difference. “It’s a high bar. I think it will be an incomparable difference between the levels of service between the two operators,” he said. Read more on our website, the link is in our bio. Pictured: Cllr Mark Dorrington
  • Region’s largest photography fair is back The South West’s largest camera and photography fair is returning this month to the Cheese and Grain. The Frome Wessex Camera and Photographic Fair will be held at the venue on Sunday 19th April, with over 30 stands selling all things camera and photography-related. Organisers say, “There will be cameras both digital and modern, collectable, lenses, filters, flashguns, film, paper, books and old prints. “If you’ve never been to a photographic camera fair, you’re missing a treat. The prices are low and you’ll find cameras, lenses and lots of other photographic accessories that you’ve been searching for. “Camera fairs are very friendly places and the stallholders will be pleased to give help and technical assistance on cameras and photographic equipment."

  • Two deaths at Frome travellers’ site as councillor demands action By Local Democracy Reporter Daniel Mumby A Frome councillor has demanded urgent action after two people died at a traveller’s site in the town. The Pines Residential Site lies on Berkley Lane at the north-eastern edge of Frome, north of the Commerce Park enterprise zone and a short walk from a planned development of 360 homes. Somerset Councillor Adam Boyden, whose Frome North division includes the site, used a full council meeting to call for an urgent inspection of the site following the death of two of its residents. The council said it was “investigating concerns” about the site, with Avon and Somerset Constabulary stating that neither death is being treated as suspicious.

  • Friends run in memory of baby to raise awareness of pregnancy condition Two friends from Frome are taking on the Bath & Bristol Railway Run this month in memory of their friend’s baby daughter, Sienna Rose, and to raise awareness of a little-known but potentially fatal pregnancy condition. Sienna Rose Stedman was tragically stillborn at 37 weeks on 24th September 2025. Following her loss, her parents discovered that her mother, Natalie Harley, had been suffering from Intrahepatic Cholestasis of Pregnancy (ICP), a condition that can pose serious risks during pregnancy if left undiagnosed. Despite experiencing all the hallmark symptoms of ICP, including severe itching, these were repeatedly attributed to pre-existing health conditions such as eczema and Gilbert’s Syndrome. Although concerns were raised with medical professionals, no bile acid test, the only definitive way to diagnose ICP, was carried out. Further research by the family revealed that awareness of ICP remains limited, and critical updates regarding testing, particularly for pregnant women taking certain medications, have not been widely recognised across healthcare services. In response, Sienna’s family is campaigning to raise awareness of ICP and to call for routine bile acid testing to be made mandatory for all pregnant women. On 19th April, Helen James and Kirsty Macdonald will run the Bath & Bristol Railway Run in Sienna’s memory. Helen will complete the half marathon, while Kirsty will take on the 10K.

  • ‘Consider the Wondrous’ festival to launch in Frome A new weekend festival will launch in Frome this September, with Winstone’s Hunting Raven Books hosting an open evening to introduce the event and connect with likeminded people who might wish to get involved. ‘Consider the Won-drous’ will take place at Rise on Whittox Lane on Saturday 19th and Sunday 20th September 2026. The festival is a collaboration between Winstone’s Hunting Raven Books and Gareth Howell-Jones, an author and bookseller from Hay-on-Wye. Winstone’s Hunting Raven Books is hosting a free open evening on 16th April to introduce the event and invite anyone interested in volunteering their time and skills. Tina Gaisford-Waller of Winstone’s Hunting Raven Books said, “We were lucky enough to host Gareth for an author talk last year, and the connection we made was instant. Gareth was looking for the perfect location for this weekend event he had long been dreaming up, and everything just fell into place.” Read more on our website, the link is in our bio.
