ON THIS WEEK’S SHOW
.
As world kindness falls on the 13th November, we decided that this week’s show should honour that, so we talk about all things KIND and how Frome can offer many forms of support during these uncertain times. Whatever your problem, you are not alone!
.
We talk to Alison Murdoch from The Good Heart.
Alison is a Frome resident whose life is dedicated to practising the philosophy of kindness.
One of The Good Heart’s projects is the Good Heart Cafe on Palmer Street. It’s a cafe with a difference…

Julian Abel gives us an update on the Compassion Project, Frome’s much-publicised health success-story which has reduced hospital admissions and improved the lives of thousands of people in our community.
