If you are thinking of learning to bell ring, this is the place to start.
Identify which Branch of the Guild you reside in from the map, then contact your Branch Secretary (details below) who will put you in touch with your local tower.
Branch Organisation
- Branch Maps and Contacts – see accordion below
- Guidelines for Branch Officers
- Branch Secretary Guide
- Branch Representative Guide
- Branch Representatives are elected at Branch AGM’s and are a useful link between Branches and the General Committee which is the main governing body of the Guild
Guild Meetings
- The various events held by the Guild take place throughout the Diocese.
- The AGM, General Committee Meetings, and the Striking Competitions are shared around the Branches based on a plan which tries to ensure that none are hit with too much to organise in close proximity.
- A 15 Year Plan is produced by the Guild Officers to provide an overview of planned events. It is currently being reviewed and will be published shortly.
