On Saturday 5 May at noon, Frome College students staged a ‘24-hour takeover’ of FromeFM to raise funds for their radio club and provide mental health counselling.

If you missed the Frome College 24-hour Takeover on 5th May you can now ‘listen again’ to all the shows.

Frome College Radio Club is a student-led group for young people to express their views and opinions on local issues that affect them and the wider Frome community. The average age of the Radio Club is just 14, and over half of the Club have some form of Special Educational Needs or come from a disadvantaged background.

Students and staff managed to raise over £1800 during the broadcast but the donation page is still open at www.frome.fm/24 so please consider donating to this very worthy cause.

The donation page closes on 28th May 2018.
