Ben recently co-founded the community regeneration project, Loop:Frome, which rethinks our resources by building a new circular economy within the town. The initial project is focused on turning food waste from Frome’s restaurants into living compost to regenerate our local soils.
Ben has a deep interest in systems design and new types of political organisation, and is keen to help expand and evolve Frome’s independence and participatory democracy.
He was born in Frome, and is a writer, poet and visual artist, as well as a meditator and student of holistic healing with a passion for how we can generate well-being in our community.
