Frank R Morton Funeral Service

Frank Morton's funeral service will be on Thursday 5th February, at 1:45 pm at St-Mary's church in Wistaston.

Frank sadly passed away on January 3rd. He was Wistaston tower captain and a bell ringing legend known throughout the country...

Over the years he also held the position of Chairman of the South Cheshire Branch, as well as treasurer, secretary and ringing master.

A number of peals and quarter peals have already been rung in his memory, showing how well loved and respected a ringer he was.

Cheshire/North Staffs Young Ringers 

Every month, young ringers from across Cheshire and North Staffs meet to ring together. We meet on the third Sunday of the month and visit different towers across the region. 

In 2025, we rang as far south as Stafford and Haughton, and as far north-west as Neston in the Wirral. We rang in between, including at Nantwich, Madeley, Waverton and Stoke Minster. We enjoyed ringing on the little bells at Woodlands, on the anticlockwise ring at Seighford, and on twelve at Stafford, Newcastle and Chester Cathedral. 

We also entered a team into the RWNYC 2025.

We welcome all bell ringers aged under-30, under-18 and under-11. Whether you can conduct spliced, or just about handle a bell, or any standard in between, you will be most welcome. 

Please see the NSACR website (https://nsacr.org.uk) for the most up-to-date information, and to find out where we’re ringing this month. If you are under-18 and coming for the first time, you will need to bring a consent form filled out by your parent/guardian for safeguarding. You can find that consent form here. 

We look forward to ringing with you!
