Congratulations

Director's Lara and Alex attended the Radio Bath Charity Awards yesterday lunchtime at The Pavillion along with lots of other fantastic organisations and charities 💕

We had our very own Bath Romans Wheelchair Basketball Club nominated in the sports category but it wasn't to be this year 🏀

They both had a lovely time at the inaugural event and are already looking forward to it (hopefully) happening next year! 🤞

Combined with the other Rotary clubs in Frome we are supporting this project with funds raised through the Rotary in Frome shop

Bath Cancer Unit Support Group (BCUSG) has launched a fundraising campaign to support a new Systemic Anti-Cancer Treatment (SACT) Centre in Frome Medical Centre. 💙SACT is the use of drugs to treat or control cancer, which includes chemotherapy, immunotherapy, hormonal therapy and targeted therapy.

This new facility will ensure more patients can receive cancer care closer to home, benefiting not only those living in Frome but also patients from neighbouring towns and villages such as Shepton Mallet, Warminster, and Westbury.

Michael Taylor, Chairman of the BCUSG, said: “We are delighted to support a project which will make the patients’ treatments easier for them in travel terms and also increase the availability of treatments for patients undergoing chemotherapy.

“Our fundraising committee in the Frome area is a relatively new group and they are very keen to involve our existing supporters and new ones in the task of raising this target in a fairly short time frame so we can get this centre open as quickly as possible.”

The new treatment centre is scheduled to open later this year and will care for up to five patients at a time. Once open, all patients will still receive their initial treatment at the Medlock Unit at the Dyson Cancer Centre, which is based at the RUH’s Combe Park site just outside of Bath city centre. Suitable patients can then continue their therapy in Frome, where they will still receive treatment from the Medlock Unit’s team of nurses.

This will enable patients to receive the same high standard of care from a familiar team, but in a more convenient location. It will also free up space in the RUH’s Dyson Cancer Centre for patients requiring more complex treatments, meaning many will begin their cancer care more quickly.👏👏

Caroline Gilleece, RUH Matron for Haematology and Oncology, said: “We are thrilled that they are supporting this new project, which will enable us to provide this service much sooner than we would have otherwise. It’s an important step in our ambition to bring cancer care to the local community.”

On Saturday 9th Frome Selwood held a race night with a difference. It was a great success raising over £1000 at the same time being a fun evening enjoyed by all the participants.
It was different because we laid out a racetrack along which model horses guided by their jockeys raced. The jockeys dressed up in racing silks borrowed from Paul Nichols racing
