Hustings announced for Frome and East Somerset – meet the candidates
Frome Town Council is organising the hustings for the upcoming UK general election.
The event will take place at the Cheese and Grain, Market Yard, Frome on Tuesday 2 July from 7pm to 9pm.
All prospective parliamentary candidates for the new constituency of Frome and East Somerset have been invited to attend, ahead of the general election on Thursday 4 July.
Boundary changes in Somerset, approved by central government earlier in 2024, have increased the number of constituencies in Somerset from five to seven and Frome's former constituency of Somerton and Frome no longer exists.
The hustings offers a chance to meet the prospective candidates, put your questions forward, listen to the views of others living in Frome and East Somerset, and get involved.
The seven candidates standing in Frome and East Somerset on 4 July are:
- Martin Dimery – Green Party
- Gavin Heathcote – Independent
- Shaun Hughes (Independent)
- Robin Moss – Labour Party
- Anna Sabine – Liberal Democrats
- David Swain – Reform UK
- Lucy Trimnell– Conservative Party
Booking is essential to attend the hustings.
