Frome Banks - Share your views
Thanks for your donation to our Big Give Green Match Fund for Frome Banks earlier this year. As we explained in the campaign, we need to raise more money in order to be able to carry out all the improvements we plan for the area. These include sensitive woodland management; planting of native trees, shrubs and flowers; training volunteers to measure water quality; creation of new habitats for wildlife; and improvement of the path to make it safer to walk along.
In order to establish a community need for this project, we are asking for feedback from people who use the path. We intend to use this information to support our case, so please only answer the below questions if you are happy for your answers to be used for this purpose. If you are happy for us to quote you by name or contact you for further comment, please write your name in the box below.
