Singing school: Victoria Mason started her new role this term as a lecturer in commercial music at Bath Spa University, teaching students about the creative profession.

Project Orchard: A collaboration between the NHS Somerset Armed Forces team and the National Trust at Dunster Castle is supporting military veterans and their friends and families.

It is the first NHS service to open in the town for a decade, and took on 4,000 people before it even opened its doors, with the area formerly described by health chiefs as a "dental desert".

One way or another: Online petitions are calling for a new road layout in Bridgwater to be scrapped.
