'Ringing Together' is a weekly session at St Clement's for ringers who can handle a bell and are starting to develop the skills of ringing with other people. We have now been going for seven weeks, and are building up a group of regulars, to which new people are always welcome.

Ringing so far has included: rounds, call changes (with simple explanations), setting at hand and backstroke to 'Twinkle Twinkle Little Star', 'Switcheroo', Kaleidoscope 'Long Places' and a Standing Game! This may all sound rather strange, but they are just different ways to gain really good bell control, and they are part of Learning the Ropes level 2. Experienced helpers are present, and there's a friendly atmosphere in which mistakes can be made and learn from. Refreshments are included in the £5 charge (no charge for helpers). No need to book - learners and helpers are all very welcome to come along and join in.
