This month on When in Frome, Daisy, Sonia and Becky are back with another mix of local stories, summer adventures and a little slice of history. We speak to local legend Dr Helen Kingston about how tackling loneliness in Frome led to a groundbreaking drop in emergency hospital admissions. Sonia soaks up a perfect summer's evening with the Frome Town Band, while Daisy delves underground to explore the mysterious history of Frome's hidden tunnel network. Challenge Sonia is back - and this time she's on two wheels, hopping on an e-bike from the Frome Community Bike Project. We also meet Tilda, a massage therapist bringing Ayurvedic healing to her new life in Frome.
And of course, Becky from Fabulous Frome has your What's On guide to August - from festivals to family fun, there's something for everyone.
