Frome Shed Newsletter Late May 2026
Anne Jones and Pam Curtis have decided to step down as Trustees of the Shed. After 6 years in the role, Anne thinks it’s time to step as down and let someone else support the Shed in this way. Anne will continue to do a number of the tasks that she has done while being a Trustee as they can be done by any Shed member.
Pam is stepping down as she has too many calls on her time at the moment.
So can you help out the remaining Trustees? Could you be a Trustee or take on one of the tasks given up by Anne and Pam? One task is to look after the Shed mobile phone. This phone is used by members of the public or organisations to contact us. Usually they leave a voicemail.More often than not it’s a request for planters or bird boxes. If you can help please speak to John Corfield.
Some of the Monday Shedders are gearing up to repaint the train from the Children’s Library. This will be a big job so the engine will be done first and then the book carriage. It can’t be done in the Library so the Monday Shedders have arranged transport courtesy of the Park Rangers and the Friends of the Library are actively fund raising now.This will truly be a community effort.
The Book Club will be discussing Sweet Caress on Monday 1st June. All are welcome at the Book Club.
The World Cup and Wimbledon will soon be with us. The Monday Shedders will celebrate Wimbledon with scones, strawberries and cream.
A timely reminder or two:
Firstly, only Trustees and Duty Managers should have access to the Shed keys. They can have their own set of building keys and access to the key safe via the code - which should not be shared with anyone.
If you open the downstairs workshop and then go up to the upstairs workshop please don’t leave the downstairs workshop open and unattended. We have some valuable small tools and personal information that would be vulnerable.
Secondly, we are all responsible for our own safety in the Shed. This includes not lone working and using best practice when using any of the tools, e.g. face masks, ventilation system, handling wood properly while sawing, sanding or drilling
