People’s Emergency Briefing film screening in Frome last Thursday. 300 people came. Very moving to see such support in the community for climate action. And a full
Lots of new people wanting to get involved. As well as people we know through the Future Shed networks.
The event was so carefully and thoughtfully held by the community by Georgia from and Peter and Annabelle, who planned a post film discussion using resources created by
And thanks a million to who supported the event both with communications and by the resilience team at the council.
Working in the climate crisis requires such care and attention to how we are. And we ended with 3 words to sum up each small group discussion.

We’re in a ‘remarkable’ heatwave right now. This is not normal. Highest temperatures for May.
Yes, enjoy sunshine and warmth and it will pass…. But heatwaves are set to intensify and they are bad news - for food growing, plants, and older people, kids especially, for rivers, animals. They cause deaths in the uk.

Find a screening of the film near you and get to know about the climate crisis. Join with others. The more we movement build, lobby and understand the better. The time is now.

This event brings together people and ideas to explore where we are, and what can happen going forward …

We will gather around a timeline of ‘green’ focused action looking back and forward in time

A few invited guests will call the focus in the room to start us off about the past, present and future, including:

- Peter Macfadyen with a brief history of climate and green action in Frome from the 1980s to now, including Sustainable Frome

- Dr Michael Howcroft and Dr Ellen Bishop from the Civic Imaginaries Partnership will join us to talk about some of their interim findings from their research in Frome around how people collectively reimagine and reinvent their places, with Kate Pelen, the artist working in Frome in response to the CIP research.

Ally Kingston and Kate Pelen will invite us on an interactive conversation around our timeline with plenty of time for conversation and discussion.

Hot drinks will be available (charged), as part of Rye Bakery.

Who is this for?

Anyone new to Frome who wants to orientate themselves, and for *anyone* wanting to find out more or be involved in what’s coming.

What’s it about?

As Green and Healthy Frome comes to an end, having grown out of partnerships including with Sustainable Frome, there is a real opportunity for Frome to consider ‘What’s Next?’

Plastic Bones has been part of the pop up on Cheap Street these past few days.

Thank you for installing the piece - a world being held up by hands with the text from the campaign by Frome Youth Climate Action Group projected on the wall. 🌌 The piece raises the stark reality of plastic consuming our planet.

Plastic Bones made by the group with .artist will soon be making its way to Heal Somerset where it will be on display through the summer. Plastic is part of the fossil fuel industry - an extractive addiction we have to reckon with.

Frome Youth Climate Action is led by and has been supported and developed by us

Biggest thanks to Chris for his brilliant work supporting this Future Shed residency as part of the Climate Action Fund 💚🌍

Results! Yes! Our evaluators came up with a great means of asking all the peeps who came to Mammoth Mend Day in January what motivated them to come. PLUS this method uses scrap fabric 😍 and they shared this film with us 🙏🏼💚

Here is giving us the results. Abi also made a phenomenal sock mend at the event herself which was much admired 🪡🧵💕

Our community mended 118.5 items in one day - incredible.

Stepping up and into climate action, speaking out … we can all do a bit more and it makes a difference🌍 we all need a liveable 🌎
