In Frome, a quiet revolution is underway. Whilst the funding for Green and Healthy Frome has come to a close, the movement it sparked - to care for both our health and our planet - continues to grow.

Over the last six years, the project inspired lasting change through our Health, Planet and Pocket channels, encouraging practical action: lowering household bills, strengthening the community, and easing pressure on the NHS.

The partnerships formed, habits shifted, and relationships built are now deeply rooted in the life of this town. They don't need a project name to continue.

This is what community-led change looks like - and everything we've learned is yours to take. Explore our Learning Insights, Evaluation Report, and free resources, and discover how caring for the planet, improving wellbeing, and saving money are one and the same. Take our learning. Build on it. Pass it on.
