  • Local women save and relaunch home-education project Two women have stepped in to save and rejuvenate a home education project after parents were sent a notice that it was closing with ‘immediate effect’. Frome residents Jessie and Hannah rescued the Phoenix Project, which has been running for six years at Critchill Manor Estate, offering a self-directed learning space for home-educated children aged 7 to 14. The project had previously been run by dedicated parent volunteers. However, just before Easter, they issued a notice to families announcing its closure due to difficulties covering rent and continuing to run the space.

  • Record-breaking Frome Festival set to include over 280 events Frome Festival brochures are now available for this year’s event, which includes a record-breaking 280 events across the town.

  • Volunteers needed as fun-filled Children’s Festival returns Frome’s popular Children’s Festival is returning this summer to celebrate childhood with dozens of free activities for children and families — and organisers are calling for volunteers to help the day run smoothly. The much-loved festival, organised by local family charity Purple Elephant, will run on Sunday 27th July, kick-starting the school holidays with events inside The Cheese and Grain, in the Market Yard car park, and throughout Welshmill Woods and Welshmill Park. With a focus on accessibility and inclusivity wherever possible, activities will include basketball, boccia, goal practice, archery, dance and theatre performances, nature-based and wildlife sessions, crafts, scrapstore art and graffiti workshops. There will also be glitter tattoos, face-painting, BMX workshops on the ramps, and music sessions in the professional Bert Jansch Recording Studio. The Key Club youth club will host a chill-out space, and there will be a dedicated baby-only area for the youngest visitors. Read more on our website, the link is in our bio.

  • Cats and literature to be celebrated in pop-up fair this month A pop-up fair is coming to Frome this month to celebrate all things cats and literature. The Big Cat-Lit Fair will be held in the Assembly Rooms on Saturday 31st May, featuring local authors, writing clubs and independent craft and gift vendors. The fair is being organised by a local woman who hopes to open a cat cafe in the heart of Frome, called Puss In Books. Scarlett, who is behind the cafe project, said, “The fair will be a great opportunity for the community to find out more about Puss In Books, while also meeting others who share a love of cats, books and creativity. It should be a really fun day out.” Read more on our website, the link is in our bio.
  • Frome sisters remembered with charity day truck convoy Two Frome sisters, Maddie and Libby North, who died in a road collision on the A361 in 2023, were honoured and remembered at the recent Wessex Truck Gathering. Maddie and Libby were killed by a drunk driver on the A361 in July 2023. The family is well known in the truck community, and at the recent Wessex Truck Gathering held at Frome Market, the sisters were honoured in a poignant convoy of trucks along the Frome Bypass. This year’s gathering saw a turnout of 177 trucks from across the UK, including vehicles from Bolton, Liskeard and Heathrow. The event featured food vendors, trade stalls, a kids’ zone and a performance by The Chosen Few. For this year’s event, the sisters’ parents, Jason and Verity, chose RoadPeace, the national charity for road traffic victims, as the beneficiary. Read more on our website, the link is in our bio.
  • Frome’s Climate Film Festival set to return this month Films inspired by the climate are set to engage audiences this month as Frome’s International Climate Film Festival returns. The festival will take place over two dates – 18th and 25th May – showcasing submissions from over 100 countries. The films share powerful stories about climate change and the resourceful solutions being developed by the people most affected. Organiser Julia Wellard said, “The inspiring stories are told through animation, video, film and music – many of them short, but none lacking in impact. You will find passion, thoughtfulness, humour and resilience, but above all a powerful wish to take positive action. Read more on our website, the link is in our bio.
  • Friends to tackle Jurassic Coast walk for dementia charity A Frome business owner is preparing to take on a 26-mile walking challenge along the Jurassic Coast to raise funds for Alzheimer’s & Dementia Support Services. David Wye, owner of Domesticare in Keyford, will be joined by his friend Elaine Keene for the event, which begins in Weymouth on Saturday 17th May. The pair are raising money in support of the charity following the recent dementia diagnosis of a family member. The charity has been providing dedicated support for people living with dementia for over 30 years. This year’s challenge follows their successful completion of the Macmillan Cancer Support ‘Mighty Hike’ last year, where they walked 26 miles through the Monmouth Hills.

  • Meet the free social running group bringing residents together – one pastry at a time! A free running group in Frome is celebrating its first anniversary after a year of helping locals get active, make friends and discover the town – one pastry at a time. Plod for Pastries, a free, no-pressure running group, was launched last May by two Frome locals Katie Geddes and Ben Wood, who were looking for local clubs to join and meet new people in a fun and active way. As keen runners, they were already running to cafes for coffee and pastries, and to pubs then decided to extend the invitation to others in the community. One year on and the group has grown in popularity with an increasing number of people joining to take part in the weekly 3km to 10km runs. The idea is that the group meet for a run then head to further socialise and eat or drink in one of Frome’s restaurants, cafes, bars. Read more on our website, the link is in our bio.

  • Helping plants and wildlife in the climate chaos Greetings, this is Peter from the Wild Bunch. This March was the sunniest ever in southern England, with some record-breaking temperatures and long dry spells. Hence, wildfires are occurring in the moors while dry winter bracken and grass have not been replaced with less flammable new shoots. While these fires clearly have a devastating impact on both plants and animals, the underlying climate chaos is much more concerning. Most plants use two triggers to emerge from dormancy: day length and an accumulation of average temperature or number of days above a certain level. This means that even if there is a long warm spell, a plant won’t emerge unless day length says it’s the ‘right’ time. But extremes of unexpected temperatures can cause a plant to override the daylight trigger and emerge or flower anyway with two painful consequences.
