A community in Frome is putting up a public appeal for an artist - or artists - to offer up ideas for two large murals in the area.

Trinity Community Group has now gained a green community space opposite Vallis School on Milk Street and following some successful funding applications they want to create a Trinity Mural.

But first they need some ideas.

The project is now looking for interested parties to apply, with a vision and ideas on how to deliver a mural to represent the diverse community.

The group wrote : " Trinity area is not the "Frome" that you'll read about in glossy magazines. You can't buy an alt milk flat white here, or an overpriced vintage dress. But you will meet real people. People who care. Creative and independent thinkers, who've changed the world. And we've been doing it for hundreds of years.

"Trinity area is, according to the government figures, the most deprived area in Frome. It is within the top 15% of deprived areas nationally. In recent years we have experienced real social issues, including antisocial behaviour, drug dealing and county lines gangs operating in the area."

So they want a mural that will reflect that.

Trinity was established as an area of Frome between 1665 and 1725. Back then it was a brand new artisans' suburb, and one of the UK's first examples of purpose built industrial housing. Many of these historic buildings were saved thanks to a bold conservation scheme in the 1980s

You can find out more and how to put forward your interest HERE with the project open for ideas until July 22

From the shortlist three of the best ideas will be chosen and be paid (£250) to formally make a presentation.

The mural is being funded by way of a grant from Frome Town Council along with some money from Somerset County Councillor John Clarke, as part of community funds.
