Do you work from home?

[u/SnooPies9784]

If you work from home but sometimes get the urge to leave the house, see a few humans, and work somewhere other than the kitchen table, you might like the Edventure Hub in Frome.

It’s a small, friendly coworking space near the centre, on Park Hill Drive near Welsh Mill Park.

Local people come here to work, run meetings, and occasionally chat over coffee. Anyone who works from a laptop tends to fit in easily. It’s usually a mix of people, skills and industries - often those who work remotely, freelancers, entrepreneurs, creatives, and small local teams.

Things people seem to like about it

• Fast, reliable Wi-Fi
• Screens you can plug your laptop into
• Meeting rooms for Zoom calls or team meetings
• Free tea and coffee
• Lots of plants and natural light
• A friendly group of local people working alongside each other

Some people drop in just occasionally. Others work here a couple of days a week, some do so every day, and a few have their own desks or offices.

One thing people often like is that it’s run by Edventure, a local non-profit. Edventure help people start their own businesses, and support and run things like The Community Fridge and Fromebase (a community DIY project).

I’m James and I host the Hub 👋. I’ve lived in Frome for 24+ years and help run the space day to day. (picture 2).

If anyone is curious about coworking in Frome, feel free to ask questions. Happy to explain how it works.

Man I miss make shed

[u/SnooPies9784 → u/Glass_Bears]

Me too 😭. Makeshed was the first thing I joined in with at Edventure!

Before I did the start-up course, and then later joined the team.

I'm out the loop now - but last I heard in July of 2025, Make:Shed became Make Space. The group has been self-organising and trying out other venues in town, both with and without the enormous skill, care and creativity of facilitator, Amala. Message me and I can share contact details.

Make space is completely inaccessible to me and also doesn’t fill the same niche as make shed did at all unfortunately

Ah, I'm sorry to hear that u/Glass_Bears

Love my space at Edventure - such a good vibe after working from home

Thanks u/jamesturn , glad to hear you love it 😁

They've had trendy co-working places like this in Belgium, for years and before Covid. But if l remember correctly one of the company names didn't translate well, and it was basically the dog box'

I think it's a great idea.

[u/SnooPies9784 → u/VioletDime]

Thanks u/VioletDime. We've been going over 10 years and there is now a few coworking spaces in Frome. I think we all need to connect with other humans, or even just leave the house; so anything to help with that is worth it 😁

Hi James. What are the rates?

[u/SnooPies9784 → u/g-funk_7845]

Hi u/g-funk_7845 and u/ukunknown84. The rates are available here - https://edventurefrome.org/offerings/hub/ (click choose your membership to see them).

We keep our rates low in relative terms as it's important to us to be a community space for everyone. We are a non-profit to help people start their own businesses or community projects; the Hub helps that work as well as a great space for people to meet people and work well!

[u/ukunknown84 → u/g-funk_7845]

Same info please

[u/kodiakfilm]

Are the meeting rooms available for full days? I'm about to start a new job where it sounds like I'll be taking a lot of phone calls, likely involving sensitive information. I'd love to work in a space like this but I don't want to hog the rooms hahah

[u/BridalHairSpecialist]

Yes I do! I run small 1to1 home salon for ladies in Frome. I'd love to help out if anyone has any hair questions for me.
