Our DRAFT mission statement is; - Creative solutions to power Frome in the future

In Sustainable Frome we believe that a town using much less energy and resources than at present will be more resilient and can also be more abundant and pleasurable. We think that climate change, peak oil & financial stresses in the world require urgent community-led responses and we want to create a vibrant and sustainable community unleashing the collective genius of Frome to face these challenges.

We work with local people to influence policy, prepare an energy descent plan and create learning & social support opportunities to restore the health of the earth’s eco-system. Please join us and help to make this vision a reality.
