!! Save Our SHARE !!
On 18th March, SHARE was given the devastating news that they will be losing their free premises on Frome high street. This news, combined with a 290% rise in running costs in the last 12 months means they now need urgent support from businesses, individuals and organisations in the community to ensure they can find a new home and can afford to continue delivering their borrowing and repair services.
The Save SHARE Together community fundraising project is now up and running, with a dedicated page on SHARE's website. Here you'll find some initial ideas about how we can all help and support SHARE and details of two town wide meetings being held later in April.
We will also be hosting them in our May Sustainable Frome meeting at The Good Heart on May 2nd.
Sustainable Frome is a group of people living locally who want to build a greener future, and one in which Frome is better placed to meet the challenges of climate change with community-led responses. A part of the Transition Network.
We have regular meetings, organise events and campaigns, and aim to provide advice and practical help for the residents of Frome who want to live in a more sustainable way.
We support and work with other local groups working and campaigning in all areas of sustainable living, social justice and environmental protection. See Groups and Campaigns for more details, and explore the Sustainable Signposts to find local groups.
Sustainable Frome FM
A regular spot on Frome FM where we report on local projects, explore challenges, highlight opportunities and share tips for things you can do at home to reduce your impact on planet earth.
Meetings
We meet on the first Thursday of each month at the Good Heart cafe.
Everyone is welcome to come along and see what's happening.
We generally start with shared food from 7pm (Note that Tibetan Memories no longer operate out of the Good Heart so this option is no longer available). We then move on to notices and the main business of the meeting from 7.30.
See the meetings page for more information.
