Mayor’s Civic Award for Pod

by | May 14, 2026

We are really excited to share that Pod, along with other local volunteers and organisations, has been awarded with a Mayor’s Civic Award for its service to the town. 

The awards were presented by Mayor Anita Collier at the Annual Town Meeting on Wednesday 1st April at Frome Town Hall.

Pod was awarded for its ‘untiring’ support for local children and adults with special needs.

We are so proud of every member of our Pod team for all of their hard work and dedication over the years!
