MY FROME

A firm favorite for me is a walk up Cley Hill, White Sheet Hill or in East woodlands, followed by a pint and maybe lunch on Corsley at the Royal Oak. Something I love about Frome is how much beautiful and diverse countryside we have on our door steps! Can be in beautiful woods within 10 minutes of leaving the house.

My favourite pub and venue is 23 Bath Street, I have been lucky enough to work there for just over a year but it has always been my first port of call when heading out in Frome since they opened over 8 years ago. I love the fact it is an independent venue supporting independent artists and events and is also a super relaxed spot for a drink with lots to keep my boys happy too. For a treat we always go to Bistro Lotte for amazing food and atmosphere and always love a takeaway from Dragon Pearl! The Golden Goose is the best shop for the beautiful gifts and treats.

I have lived in Frome for just over 11 years. It was an accidental move trying to move closer to my mum and sister in Bristol after a few years of living in Brighton, Kent, Norfolk and Spain! We all ended up moving to Frome instead, including my late dad too and we have all very happily stayed put!

I love the sense of community, and how much we have to offer. I live quite centrally and to be able to walk into town, always bump into a friendly face or two and have so much on my doorstep is invaluable! It’s a great town to live in and visit, I feel very lucky to be part of such a friendly and inspiring community!

A perfect day for me would be a walk into town via a coffee shop and going to my office at 23 Bath Street. I work helping with lots of exciting events and with a very lovely team so it’s always nice to get to work and get stuck in. Then to pop out and get lunch from Catherine Hill, very lucky enough to have firm favourites the Garden Cafe and The Hamper Sandwich shop just a minute away. Then a walk back home through Rodden meadow or up Catherine Hill and have a look at the shops and get back to the boys.. Then of course if we have an event to pop back down to 23 for a drink and a dance!

I’m at my happiest when I’m off on a mission, hitching up my caravan and heading to a festival with all the family. Or raving, I’m a big fan of music, of all kinds especially Jungle and Drum and Bass!

Aside from marketing events at 23 Bath Street I produce and programme a venue called the ‘Blind Tiger’ which is in the Unfairground at Glastonbury festival. This is my biggest project, programming the music for 5 days! We’re open from midday - 6am most days. Aside from that I’ll be doing event photography when I can, working at 23 and also have a job with Boomtown Fair working with the pop up sound systems they have throughout the festival.

Come to 23, follow us on social media or sign up for our newsletter. We are a fully independent venue so really appreciate any support with sharing our events.

Come and have a dance at the Blind Tiger if you’re lucky enough to be at Glastonbury and soak up the crazy atmosphere of the Unfairground and the Naughty corner! Or if you can’t make it there then I put on an event called Club Momo at 23 and various other places so keep your eyes out for more coming soon!
