Now

The Coat’s pattern of life is to walk for a number of days and then to stay in a place - on display, walking locally, or undergoing creative repair - until a group of pilgrims is able to walk it on again.
When it is on the move you can see where it is walking to each day below.

We are committed to keep the Coat walking and working whilst the climate and ecological situation remains an emergency.

The Coat of Hopes is currently in Frome.

Friday 17th April - Monday 4th May

The Coat is at Christ Church (Christchurch St W, Frome BA11 1EH), where it will be based for the rest of its time in Frome. All welcome to join.

The Coat can be visited on Wednesdays and Sundays when the church is open and stewarded.
