Virtual Ringing in 2021
It will be a while before ringing on tower bells is back to normal, so in the meantime the Guild is running study groups to help keep your ringing brain fit and meet other local ringers through Zoom and Ringing Room.
- Next session 2nd March – details on flyer
- Catch up on earlier sessions
- Download the flyer giving details of the full programme.
Whatever your ringing level, all Guild members will be very welcome to join in the sessions. Every endeavour will be made in Ringing Room to ensure ringers are working at a level they are comfortable with. It is also fine, if individuals want to only attend the talks and not get involved in the online ringing. The organisers would love you to join in!
Contact details are on the flyer
If this is new to you, Ringing Room is a web-based app to allow ringers to ‘ring’ while socially distanced.

An experienced ringer said “It felt like being a learner all over again. A whole new set of skills to master but I’m sure that it’s been good for me!” Less experienced ringers can learn a lot as well.
