Honouring 300 Years of Heritage: Mogers Drewett LLP Supports The Blue House, Frome
Preserving History, Securing the Future: The Blue House 300th Anniversary Appeal
As they gear up to launch their 300th year appeal, The Blue House is delighted to be sponsored by Mogers Drewett LLP and Guy and Lady Rose Monson to get them off to a good start. Receiving no public funding, the Blue House has had previous appeals – in the 1960s to prevent it being demolished and the 1990s for urgent modernisation – which the local population and businesses have generously funded. They now need to raise the funds to carry out essential repairs and to ensure it meets the necessary standards of the 21st century. They aim to raise £500,000 for immediate needs and £1.5 million over the next 3 years.
Although the current building is only 300 years old, they have been on this site, providing safe and comfortable studios and flats for the elderly women and men of Frome since 1480. As one of only two Grade 1 listed buildings in Frome, and as the home to its residents, The Blue House requires specialist maintenance both inside and out.
Please join us in keeping alive this service to the residents of Frome and help us preserve this beautiful building right in the town centre.
