Meetings

The Guild organises a range of practice meetings and social events during the year. Each Branch arranges a programme of monthly practices which are open to all members and visitors. Special surprise practices are also arranged on a monthly basis. The Ringing Centre also organises occasional special events which are included in the branch programmes.
Please try and support guild events; they are arranged for your benefit and enjoyment.
On rare occasions events have to be cancelled; please check with the branch officers beforehand.

Annual Striking Competition

This year Hensingham hosts the competition on Saturday June 11. Please try to enter at least one six bell team from your tower and enjoy a chat and relax listening to the other bands. We usually have a sunny day, so keep your fingers crossed!
