Are you 11-14? Looking for something to fill the last week of your holidays? Wanting a hobby that combines a mental puzzle with a new skill? Bell ringing could be for you!
National award-winners for our work with young ringers, we are running a Summer Club to teach young people how to ring a bell on their own and with others.
And did we mention that we’ll be doing some hand bells as well?
The Club is running from 24th to 28th August, from 9.30 to 12.30.

These ringers have been with us for some 18 months now and they get better and better each week.
Learning in Altrincham, they ring at towers across East and Mid Cheshire – Lymm, Stretton, Bowdon and beyond.
